300Kohm 1W resistor sought

[Michael L]

I'm building a valve preamp from a VTA kit (SP14) but I am lacking just one
resistor. It's drops 75% of the HT (265V ) to set the -Ve LT voltage to 65 volts wrt HT ground. I imagine the resistance isn't very critical.
I am new to valves.
It's surprisingly difficult to track one down. Could someone please suggest a supplier and or acceptable value/s that might improve my search.

270K would be a more common size, but check HFC.

I had a quick look and they stock a Kiwame 300K 2W resistor, and possibly other makes.

The Kiwame is 0.84p and they have 970 in stock.

Thanks Nick. I've put an order in

I like that. Nick is probably Philip but who cares.

Oops. I was thrown by the email from nick@lurcherlink and now realise that
was from the forum owner.

So Philip - thanks

That's what I first thought of too, having bought same.
