Default Re: Philetta BD 244U

Hi folks,

I beleive these NTC resistors are bad, the circuit shows them as NTC 220 and 240 Ohms. But they are reading 2.6k and 8.8k respectively, even when heated to 100deg they only drop to about 50% of their ambient values.

Any advice on sourcing replacements?
The manual doesn't provide a wattage rating.

These are in series with the heaters for the UF89 and UY85.

The series dial lamps are also across the 240 Ohm one.


edit: Nothing jumping out at me on the web, I'm wondering if I can just use lower value 'normal resistors' and accept a slow warm up time...
