Provided one selects MOF resistors with low-inductance,  MOF resistors 
are superior to carbon-comp resistors in RF service.  For instance, the 
Matsushita 3w-rated 100 ohm MOF resistors we use in our suppressor 
retrofit kits have c. 11nH of intrinsic L, and will safely dissipate 12w 
for one-hour @75 deg. F ambient.  The trade-off is that such a resistor 
can Not be used as a coil-form for a suppressor-L.  .
