Jeff, W8CQ at Harbach Electronics has SPH type resistors which are the
replacement for the BWH style resistor from IRC.
They are described as "fusible, wire-wound" resistors.
Some believe that this resistor should be replaced with a larger (10-20W
resistor) that is expected to survive the current surge that occurs when
a 3-500Z flashes over momentarily or some other fault temporarily shorts
the HV. Personally I prefer sticking with the Drake design that clears
the fault by vaporizing! It's cheaper than the $20 plus HV fuses used
by Collins in the KWS-1 !!

What does the BWH mean or stand for on the specs on the .82 ohm resistor.
That is the one they are using for a fuse in the High Voltage on the
L4-B or L7 power supply...
