Just looked up ... the suckers are running $25-30 at the wholesale electronics suppliers. I don't want to know what they cost when they come in a Beech box. Jim "RST Engineering - JIm" wrote in message m... That's unfortunately not the case, Dan. Everything Wichita turned out up until the mid 60s used Ohmite wirewounds. Of course, they would burn out right where the wire got the hottest ... where the resistance of the bulbs and the resistance of the pot were the same. THis was almost always 10% or so from the high side contact of the pot. Jim wrote in message ... . Wirewound pots aren't common in the resistances used here and they cost too much. Dan I bought correct ones from aircraft salvage yards for $50 -$70 each. I sure would have like to know the part number for a replacement. -- Regards, Ross C-172F 180HP Sold KSWI |
