Probably the same engineer that specified the 1.5K resistor, in series with the CRT second anode.
According to Sams, it's stated as resistance wire. It's a small guage solid wire, instead of stranded wire, like used on practically all the flybacks, that I ever replaced.
I don't know, how much voltage drop is required, as Sams doesn't specify a resistance value.
