No shortage of KOA Speer Carbon Film "Killwammy" resistors

Heh, yes, the carbon film ones are indeed there. Did you find any carbon comps? I couldn't find them, and that's what I had meant when I posted about for grid stoppers. I also use the CFs for other locations.
Ohmite works fine in most cases for Carbon Comps.

Jeff,
As the uploaded graphic shows, Mouser carries carbon comp. resistors by several makers. Xicon brand are fine and probably the best value.

Some manufacturers are now producing "carbon composition" resistors that are in fact spiral wound. I first encountered this when replacing the parasitic suppressors in a HF transmitter about 20 years ago. The new resistors didn't work, and I had to scrape the outer layer off one to understand why. So, a word to the wise - any carbon comp types purchased new from a general supply house like Mouser or Digikey should be inspected for this before you use them.
