[Amps] Clipperton-L parasitic suppressors

[Tim Long]

Hi Larry,
Yes, indeed they are 100 ohm, 2W, carbon composition.  Carbon 
composition resistors are hard to find.  Ceramic composition resistors 
are a good substitute.  I just ordered some myself from Mouser - they're 
Ohmite P/N - OY101KE.  I doubt the diameters will be the same.  The 
stock suppressor coils had 6 turns of 16 or 18 AWG on the resistor 
body.  I think 4 turns of 1/2 inch diameter is pretty close.  I used 14 AWG.
Good luck & 73, Tim, W2UI
