Cantenna Resistors

[Robert Radmore]

The Globar resistors used in the Heathkit Cantenna were originally made by
the Globar Division of Carborundum Co. This facility survives as Kanthal
Globar, 3425 Hyde Park Blvd, Niagara Falls, NY 14302, 716/286-7601. Check
out the resistors at http://www.globar.com/resistors.highvoltage.html
Pricing unknown.

As mentioned by others many of the Cantennas were filled with PCB oils
which by todays standards are a no no. Even the disposal of the oil in the
Cantenna becomes an environmental problem.
