[Amps] Parasitic Resister Value

Anyone want to take a guess at the resistor value in a parasitic choke?

Have an estate, Amp Supply LA-1000 for check out. Two of the parasitic 
choke resistors are toast. The other two are so dark as to be 
unreadable. Any ohm meter reading would be useless. Guess it didn't like 
a KW on 11 meters.
Two watt carbon resistors that are now carbon dust.

About a ten turn coil, wrapped tight, on the resistor.

The front label says Amp-Supply, the paper sticker on the back says 
Ameritron.
The Ameritron book just says PC-1, PC-4

Four 6MJ6/6LQ6 tubes.

Before I start reading.......
