Hello can anyone help me out please ,I have a Philco model #20 , I want to change all caps and resistors except the long wire wound one, I have checked all the tabs on the long wire wound resistor and have found all seem fine except numbers 6 & 7 , they should be 975 ohms but check at zero ohms , for some reason there is a wire soldered across the 6 & 7 tabs , I am thinking some one did a repair on this set and did not have a 975 ohm resistor to put in here so they just soldered a pice of wire across the 6 & 7 tabs , can anyone tell me if maybe it came this way from the factory and is ok , or should I cut this wire and put in a 1k resistor and if so what watt should I use , I have attached the schematics and a photo of the wire wound resistor and also have attached a drawing of it with the readings I got , would be thankful for any help I won't change this until I am sure , all the very best have a great day Rick

PS I will send the schematic in another post had some problems
