Default Replacement for Carbon Comp resistors

Sources for higher wattage carbon composition resistors seem to have dried
up. Can ceramic composition resistors, such as Ohmite's OX/OY series be
used? They are touted as "non-inductive". Please advise.


Those don't say anything about their inductance... think you should
consider http://www.ohmite.com/catalog/pdf/tfs.pdf
