My Workman guide (sorry no date) says it's replaced by a Workman FR.49, a .49 ohm hot thermistor. No data in the guide, just the "hot" resistance.

Oneida and GC also marketed a line of thermistors, perhaps someone has one hiding somewhere.

Else, you may be able to find a GE Sensing Systems thermistor to work - Mouser sells these. A CL-80 comes close (47 ohms cold, .5 ohms at 100% rated current of 3A)

Or try and find the original RCA...


Cheers,
