looking at the cap in parallel with the NST secondary, and the 35 Ohms could
be the NST.  Also, all of his caps were wired in parallel, not series as is
typical for MMC's, so a single shorted cap could result in a low resistance.
But since the caps are in fact small ceramic disks, they'd not be long for
this world if used in a TC.
