FYI. I went through all the unusual looking R's in my N and found all to be high. It ranged from 10% (no biggie) to 60%. Naturally the higher values drifted the most. Further if those same R's were to be tested over temp I would be surprised if they still met original temco specs. I bet the higher value ones also drift quite a bit from cold start to final cabinet temp.

Well, after going through almost all of the resistors in the Bc-348-N I am working on, I have at last found ONE that is significantly LOWER than its specified value. The wiring diagram, schematic, and the resistor's color code shows it to be about 185K when it should be 1 Megaohm. There must be too many Mhos in the circuit!
