Experiment with any vintage carbon composition resistor and test its value. I have read posts by others in the radio restoration community and they seem to be OK with using metal oxide resistors to replace the old carbon comp ones if they are bad so who am I to argue? It's a sunny 86 degrees here in Chicago today but the humidity is very low (34%) and that is rare. Nice to see a positive update as the radio is a champ now. Your hard work always pays off.
Jim, thank you so much for sharing that info with us from Radio Daze. I'm gonna have to check them out and see what info they have on different subjects. I assume that you can download radio schematics from Radio Museum ?

Yes you can, although a little complex but you’re limited to three pages per day😊if not a member
