Finally got the resistor in from Mouser. The only bad thing is that I must not have left that prior resistor in circuit long enough.....the chassis voltage with this one in line dropped to 243V. Should be at 255

I do have to say, the 18 ohm RH series Dale resistor I put in is getting HOT. Handling the set fine, but it sure is warm.

Picture isn't fantastic, reception wise, but the tuner in this set isn't the greatest and I'm using clip leads for an antenna picking up signal from my agile modulator. I'm going to button it up for the moment and move it to cable and see where we're at. The chassis voltage is off by -12V, meaning that I'll have to probably order yet another resistor, but I want to let it play out a little where it is and see how it looks. The picture filled out nicely as opposed to where it was before.
