Topband: Non-inductive resistors.

Joe,

Don't forget the Ohmite OX/OY series ceramic composition resistors
(page 677 of the Digi-Key Sept-Dec 2002 catalog). The 2 watt parts (OY
series) are $1.00 each, come in low values (<1K ohm), and carry a
750VAC x 80 joule rating.

I used them on the terminations for a pair of K9AY loop and they have
held up fine for over a year.

research at Ohmite http://www.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?  These
are non-inductive 2.5 watt high energy absorbing ceramic axial lead
resistors.  They do not have any values below 1 k so it would take 4 2.2 k
resistors for each termination.  Resistor cost $9.25 each US.  Part number
for these is AX22GK.
