    I have replaced several of the same canohm units Scott used on the Phantom, Sixteen, Masterpiece - same values. That particular part was not robust enough. 

    I like to use the big 8000 ohm ceramic resisters with the exposed winding on one side and 4 of the slider clamps  - great if you can find them.  

    The redesigned 1940 Phantom 6L6 amp was evidently intended for both the standard and FM version.

    I find having an actual Riders Volumes beats any other medium for clarity of print, and glad i picked up Vol 1 to 15 years ago.

    The Candohm resistors usually fail due to corrosion between the lug and the resistance wire causing loss of continuity, not due to overheating.

    David,

    I have a stock of the Ohmite version of 10k 50 Watt pieces with extra slider clamps. They serve well.

    Norman,

    I believe you are correct. The Candohms used in the other chassis' I've seen run fairly cool.
