Conrad:

Regarding a resistor in the PA cabinet, absorbing harmonic
energy:  it is not anedotal!  Quite true, being used at
Continental Electronics.

But the position is important and has to be done by cut and
try methods.  This technique was used for both stabilization
and for VHF/UHF harmonic control.
