[Boatanchors] Carbon Comp V ratings

[Bill Cromwell]

The voltage that we might see *across* that resistor depends entirely on 
the current through it. Not very much with that small inductor *across* 
it. The parasitic suppressor is not across the output but is in series. 
The only way to determine the voltage across it to know the current 
through it. Not much. As somebody pointed out...those tiny resistors do 
not vaporize.
