I’m needing to replace 3900 ohm resistor on the output tubes of this 41-250. The resistor is cracked in two.
I have a 3900 ohm 1/2 watt metal oxide replacement unit. The schematic is silent about the required wattage. Will this work or is a higher wattage required? I’ve enclosed a pic of the existing resistor.


I’ve just been replacing lots of this rubber wire while I rewire to get the lights to work.Another week or so and I should have all this done. Using 20 gauge single wire which seems to fit properly as I’m trying to follow the original dressing of the wiring.

I’m seeing no issues with this restoration - aside from some snarky Facebook comments so I cancelled my account.  On this model it seems common people simply rewire the lights to the nearest tube socket rather than tracing out the wiring and replacing it - which involves disassembly. Not sure why people get mad about doing things right. Easy enough to find that 1.8 watt resistor under the metal cover. People are lazy I guess. 

The radio seems to be working well. I need to replace the last few bad caps and resistors plus the block cap plus the last pieces of bad wiring
