[Elecraft] Metal Oxide Power Resistors Inductive?

[Stuart Rohre]

Trev,
Way back in 1960's  I wondered the same about Corning tin oxide resistors
like these axials.

I measured many after work with HP Vector Impedance Meters, forerunners to
the MFJ et al.

The results I got showed they were good up to 108 MHz the high end of the
4815 Z meter.  I also had run them down below 500kHz with the 4800 Z meter.

It is likely these are OK, depending on how they are deposited.  If spirals
are done solenoid style there is likely some inductance, but if wound right,
it can be canceled.
