[AMRadio] Globar brand thermistors

[Jim Wilhite]

Cold resistances varied some.  Hallicrafters used them in TV sets as well as 
AC/DC sets, as did other manufacturers  Cold resistance varied from just 
over 100 ohms to about 85, if memory serves correct.

I found several at a parts store where I lived before and a friend of mine 
wanted several.  I don't think he wanted as many as I sent, but he is 
supplied for life.

Those of you who have old stores in their areas might check.  Perfect for 
what John mentioned and for the AC sets with no transformer such as the 
Scott SLRM.
