The resistors are connected to unused pins of the VR150/30 valve base, which, incidentally, I had to replace since it had failed.
As for the resistors, are they the originals? I know not. All of the resistors in this receiver are of that type (except for a few power W/W types). If they are original fitments, then they've survived remarkably well over the years: none needed replacement on the grounds of seriously changed values. OTOH, 99% of the capacitors in this receiver were found to be leaky
- some seriously so. Needless to say, they have been replaced. (Aside: I don't re-stuff capacitors: I simply replace them with new, modern ones.)
