Resistor #82, 5600 ohms seems to be just a huge load to the B+ supply; twenty watts of plate power spent on this resistor. What's the purpose of it? Prevent ice from forming on the chassis?

Since this is the B supply for the audio output stage, could it be part of a kind of constant source resistance stabilizer? That's all I can think of.
