Local source 120 ohm resistor

[electronman1729]

Anyone know of a local source for a 120 ohm 1/4W through hole resistor?

I probably have one, but I am not local

I have one

I'm off i70 and Quebec until 630 today

leads are not full length though probably 3/8-1/2"

Your nearest Radio Shack (if there are still any around) would carry them.
Or another good source is to cannibalize old electronic items, just unsolder the appropriate marked resistor.

Unfortunately that won't work. I need the length of the leads so I can terminate on the terminal connections at the end of my devicenet network.

You can solder short pieces of small solid copper wire to the leads on the scavenged resistors to extend them. Use a heat sink just before the resistor to prevent over heating the component.

Thats what mine is from actually a terminating resistor on a trucks j1939 CAN wiring it has 2 female deutch barrels on the end if that helps
