The CTC-16 (not x) shows it to be 5w. 
both have the same RCA part # for the resistor, 104180.
But the SAMs for the XL clearly shows 3w, and lists a part # shown on others listed as 5w, so what is in it? Does it not matter?

what i find so confusing
r106 vs 105 16xl- 16
same location on schematic, shows same RCA part number, why is one 5w and one 3w |
If you can't spec the same wattage resistor always go up in wattage not down...they probably did that.
Also when replacing a high watt power resistor that tends to get hot in a restoration scenario it may be better to choose a higher wattage part than original as that will make the replacement run cooler.
