Re: Hallicrafters SX-17 Advice on repair.
I looked at the terminal power resistor - it does not measure 10K on each leg. It measures 5K. It will not produce 10K measurement in any combination including the ones the schematic dictate should. Also looks like some bloke put a .22uF where the 25uF/400 should go - so now the problem may be identified (I may be that bloke...).
Do these terminal power resistors go bad? I have a pair of Ohmite 10Ks and a large terminal strip (with a 22uF/450) I plan to replace this section with. I have no experience with these rather odd resistors intuit no repair I have done has ever involved these. Just making sure I am not overlooking something special about these resistors.
