thank you for your answer.
that's what I knew before. What I don't know is if the the inductive resistors 
can be visually identified?
I have 3 pairs of R19 and R20, one pair built in, 2 pairs are "spare parts", but 
I don't know if they are all from the good lot or not. They look exactly 
identical.
