Title: Fuse resistors and 880-100n ohm globar Hallicrafters S 120 Post by: jimmy on September 09, 2018, 04:13:55 PM Would someone please help me, I am in the middle of trying to repair a S 120. I need help on how to test R20, R21, R22. R20 is 880 to 100 ohms Globar, I think I will need a negitive temperture cofficient thermistor here? R21 is 33 ohms, 5 watt and R22 is 22 ohms 2 watt and both or fused. Question , how do you check for good or bad? any and all help will be very much appreciated.

120 - 98 = 22 volts at .15A gives about 140 ohm resistor 5W will get the job done to replace a aging globar there is no power transformer so there is no isolation and a shock hazard .... I would want one added externaly or internally .... the all American 5 would operate from either AC or DC from the old days Title: Re: Fuse resistors and 880-100n ohm globar Hallicrafters S 120 Post by: jimmy on September 10, 2018, 05:20:21 PM John just wanted to thank you for your help.
