Crosley 124

1/25/2010 5:51:17 PMMark

In a Crosley Mdl#124 I have a couple of dog bone resitors approx 2in. long with dots on them. Values are 750ohm,15k, and 150,000 ohm but I do not know what wattage they are. By their size I would guess 10W but I cannot find any 10W 150,000 ohm resistors. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Mark

Sir Mark. . . . .

Newer carbon equivalents exhibit smaller size physical footprints, so those units would expected to be 1 and 2 watt units .

For that 150K , as being a 10 watt rating would be justifuable only if the B+ involved across it was in the 5000 volt range ! . . . I think NOT !

A:

That lower 750 value is dropping the main B+ level down, so it might be up to a 2 watt unit, just to assure its cool operation..

B:

With the 150,000 ohm unit dropping down the lowest B+ voltage, a 1 watt unit should run c o o o o l in that slot.

C:

If that 15 k unit in question, is fulfilling the B+ supply to the 27 osc, down in the extreme left bottom corner of the schematic, a 1 watt unit there would hold up well.
But since I can not see all of the 3 that you mentioned.

IF all of the same physical sizing, 1 watt seems in order for those highest ohmmage units with a 2 watt used for that 750 unit if it happens to be physically larger that the other 2 units.
