Film resistors will work fine. Use the same coils.
The final tubes should be 6JB6's

I looked into the PA I damaged when a faulty key put the radio in transmit:
- One of the parasitic choke leads popped out of the resistor.
- One of the 1-watt cathode resistors is cracked and both read higher than 15 ohms.
- No more than 75mA when tuning.
I'm thinking of replacing the 6GE5s; both cathode resistors with 2-watt film resistors; both parasitic chokes; possibly replacing the 12BY7 driver tube.
Appreciate any expert advice on where else to check and what else to replace.
Thanks & 73
