Liverpool 5W Screen Resistors

[bcmatt]

So, I'm currently building my first Liverpool, (and Express for a friend simultaneously).

I used the BOMs in the files section to help me figure out all the parts I needed.

However, whenever I look at a schematic or layout, the Liverpool screen Resistors say 1K 5Watts.
The potential problem is that the BOM says 1.5K 5W.

So, I have 4 of these 1.5K 5Watt resistors and I'm wondering if it is correct for me to use them. Are they wrong? Are they going to cause problems? Can I use them, or do I need to order new resistors?
Thanks,
Matt

Liverpool uses 1K screen resistors rated at 5 watts.

Liverpool uses 1.5K screen resistors rated at 5 watts.

Ok, phew! Thanks!

I don't understand why so many schematics that I look at say "1K 5W".

[Allynmey]

Express 1K/5 watts
Liverpool 1K/5 watts
Rocket 100R/5 watts

Express 1K/5 watts
Liverpool 1.5K/5 watts
Rocket 100R/5 watts

Yikes, didn't know that about the Liverpool. Gonna have to do a Mouser order.

All existing schematics/layouts have it as 1K 5W. Ron's BOM -does- have it cited as 1K5 5W.

That one caught me out too.

Just as well I'm about to swap the output transformer in mine for one of Chris' vintage-style M19/26 transformers anyway, so I'll swap out the screens while it's apart.

The Express has had a Pacific in it for some time so I thought it was about time the Liverpool saw some love, but I didn't realise I'd have to be doing this too!

Are you sure on the Liverpool value Allyn?

I thought the screens were 1K 5W and grids 1.5K.

I'd really like to know. Last weekend I was going to finish up my Liverpool's socket wiring, which included the screen and grid resistors.

Very timely question, whew.

[Allynmey]

Sorry boys, I didn't know what I was thinking. I need more sleep. Liverpool uses 1K screens. I checked my photos and my own builds....

[paulster]

Thanks Allyn.

Do you know how big a pain it was to swap out those 1Ks for 1K5s the other day?

Time to break out the soldering station again!

[gearhead]

Went full circle on this one.

Didn't install the 1k I had because of the 1k5 debate.

Ordered and received 1k5 's from Mouser.

Was going to install last weekend, but got roped into family activities.

Whew.

I will fix the Liverpool BOM, I must have not changed that value when I created the LP BOM (I copied the Express document as a template)

Sorry folks, my bad, I didn't catch that...

[Ron Worley]

Corrected

[paulster]

So, over the last week my Liverpool has had 1K, 1K5 and now 1K again on the screens!

Fortunately, in doing all this, I've swapped in Moose's vintage-spec OT in place of the older M27 iron so at least I'll be comparing apples with apples now as soon as I get a chance to crank it.

[bcmatt]

Well, I'm glad we got this straightened out. I'll have to order the right ones. I've been busy moving anyways, so I didn't get 1k5s installed anyways.
