	I'd like a little help finishing up the identification of
the former resistor (yes, "the smoke came out of it") mentioned
above.  Note that there is a capital omega between the 150 and the
J, and the device also says "Riken", which I presume is a brand
name.
	None of my references which list mil-spec resistors lists
an "RS" class, so if anyone has a part number breakdown for these
things, please send it.
	Thus far, I gather that this is probably a 150 ohm, 1%, 25
ppm/(deg. C) wirewound resistor.  What does the "B" indicate?  Does
the 2 mean 2 watts, or is it a code like the other mil-spec
designations that means _anything_ _but_ 2 watts?  Does "RS" designate
some particular type of wirewound resistor?  Am I correct in believing
that it's wirewound?
	Thanks!

Doing pretty good so far.  Yes, the '2' means 2 watt.  RS resistors can be had
from Dale, Newark Electronics has them.  Newark is a great distributor for
small quantities.  The resistor is also non-inductive.

Sounds like 150 ohms should be Ok.  Just check that there's not a short 
down the line that might burn the replacement resistor up.
