[Stynus] has finished a unique decade resistance box which doesn’t use conventional rotary switches to select the appropriate resistors. These switches are old fashioned and expensive, so [Stynus] ...

One of those useful things to have around on your bench is a decade resistance box, essentially a dial-a-resistance instrument. They used to be quite expensive in line with the cost of close-tolerance ...

Resistors have been a part of almost every electronic circuit for well over 100 years. During that time, resistors have taken many forms. You can still find early resistors that resembled glass fuses ...
