Default Re: Bush TV22 restoration

While I am waiting for 43swg wire to arrive I'm replacing leaky wax capacitors and excessively high resistors. I'm curious about the function of the series RC between the heater tap on the dropper and HT line. The capacitor (0.75uF) is missing at present and the 1200 ohm resistor has got extremely hot in the past, the paxolin board underneath it now being blackened and delaminated.
