Philco 65 paper capacitors
#9

Here are the resistance values I measured at each location:

(5) 107 ohm
(6) 102 ohm
(9) no resistor
(10) 103 ohm
(27) 245 ohm

As I said, I plan on restuffing the capacitor while keeping the resistor. I want to keep the architecture as clean as possible in the chassis. Plus, I believe wirewound resistors are reliable.

If not, I may try to stuff the resistor inside with the capacitor... though I don't know how much heat the resistors will generate.

Actual recapping will take place much later. I'm now only taking inventory of what I'll be replacing for about 10 radios before I place an order for parts.
