Hi all

Anyone happen to know the value of the resistor in the CR network
connected in the synchronous motor feed ? Looks like brown - red -
brown so 120 ohms, but it's well overheated and discoloured, with a
nice burn mark right around the spiral element, right in the centre.
Can't get a reading from either end to the burn point. Looks at a guess
to be rated about 3 -5 watts. Anybody think of a reason *not* to use a
wirewound rather than the original metal film type ?

Only thing I can think of is a metal film one will be more stable?
