Don't know exactly what was in the Viking II, but for HF rigs I've find 
that 47 or 100 ohm, 2-watt carbon or film resistors work well for 
do-it-yourself parasitic suppressors.

Subject: [Johnson] VIKING II PARASITIC SUPPRESSOR QUESTION

Hello gents...

I've started work on a Johnson Viking II that arrived in my fleet 
without its parasitic suppressors that connect the plates of the 6146s. 
The suppressors are designated "L11" and "L12" however the schematic 
shows them as coils and resistors without value. I am assuming it is 
the usual resistor with a few turns of wire wound around it. Can anyone 
peer inside their VIKING II and tell me what value resistor is used as 
well as how many turns (and what gauge) wire is used for the coil? If 
it uses some sort of other proprietary component design I'd appreciate 
any additional info you can offer.

Thanks.
