I recently let the smoke out of the 3 resistors on the RX100 scale on my 
old Simpson 260.  They are burned pretty bad, and I can't read any color 
code or lettering on them.  Can anyone help me out by opening their 260 
and letting me know the value of the resistor to the left of the zero 
adj pot on the PC board, (looks like a regular 1/2 Watt unit) and of the 
2 resistors just below the same pot  (1 looks like a regular 1/2 Watter 
and the other looks to be a gray bodied high tolerance unit, possibly 1 
Watt)  ??

Thanks for any help!
