In Reply to: RE: Can 6 ohm Resistors be replaced with a 10 ohm ones ? posted by Door Nail on March 24, 2008 at 08:43:40
That's an interesting suggestion...thanks, but I'm not sure I want to deviate from the actual schematic.....lest it makes my life (or somebody else's life) difficult and/or confusing when trouble-shooting at a later date.
Later,
Cyril

Speaking of deviation, it is NOT arbitrarily OK to increase capacitance value in circuts, but it IS OK to increase the voltage-rating of a capacitor or resistor (because that spec merely applys to what the part can withstand before breakdown). I think you kinda did not fully understand what you believed OK per part exchange. The schematic for your Heathkit specifys acceptable part value tolerances.
Thanks Ron...Got it now....and maybe you can comment on this question of mine as well.
A 6 ohm resistor of 5% value tolerance may be actual resistance of 5R7 to 6R3 ohms, OR if 10% tolerance an actual range from 5R4 to 6R6 ohms (where R equals a decimal point in resistor value nomenclature). So 6R2 lableled is of no concern to me in this application where 6R is specifed. As per wattage, for example a single 1 watt resistor = two 1/2 watters in parallel. So, just one or two in parallel really depends on what is readily available & how much physical space is available under the chassis; the resistance value & wattage rating can be acomplished either way.
