GFA 555 - output resistors

[dickiedoo]

I got my hands on my second GFA 555, this one in pretty rough shape. (Free to me!) Some of the output resistors are missing. Spec says .82uf, 2W, metal oxide. My question is, do they really need to be metal oxide? Would metal films be a choice here?

Either is fine. 🙂

The man himself… I’ll take your word for it. 😎

are Farads now a unit of resistance?/satire
