Continetal 220v radio used on 240v mains

[Old Sparky]

The Radio in question, a Loewe-Opta Table Radiogram, is an AC only set with a mains TX whose primary is tapped for 110, 127, 160 & 220v. It had worked, presumably for many years in the U.K. before the present owner acquired it, and, on test, after I replaced a couple of faulty capacitors, one a 'woeful Wima' in the mixer/osc. circuit, the other being the FM discriminator 4uf capacitor, has been working OK since I got involved with it. The only other item I've replaced is the filter resistor between the reservoir & smoothing caps. The original is shown on the circuit as being 500 ohm 3 watt. I had a 1k2 vitreous enamel 7W resistor to hand, which I fitted instead of the large 10W RS w/w type that had been fitted elsewhere, the higher value reduces the HT downstream of the smoothing cap. to about 260v, but of course does nothing for the HT to the o/p transformer primaries, and thus EL84 anodes.
I hadn't though of those chassis mount resistors, but could probably find room to mount one on, or under the chassis.
