Unrelated, what is the radio in your avatar? I have one that looks exactly like it... except it's a 1970s reproduction and it's made of plastic. lol
Isn't the set they are working on electrostatic? Electrostatic sets typically use all carbon comp potentiometers because none of the control circuits are high current/power. Wire rheostats are typically limited to high current applications like electromagnetic focus, centering, and cathode resistance vertical linearly in mag deflection sets.
