I forget what the case was on my CT-100 (I think the previous owner addressed the power supply when they did a janky amateurish recap), but my 21CT55 (CT-100 factory modified to drive a 21AXP22) both ballast sections were open so I bought a couple of chassis mount high power resistors off mouser and found places on the rear upright where the resistor screw holes lined up with the cage screw holes. I gutted the original ballast and it now exists purely as decoration.

I also ended up replacing each selenium with 12 modern silicon diodes in series to emulate the original selenium voltage drop.
