Hi
I believe this is normal. According to the schematic
I have, only the motor is switched. The transformer
that supplies the current loop is still active. You
must pull the plug when working on these.

This res. gets hot even when switched off, but just in the socket. I'm
going to take pictures of the unit on wednesday, but a picture of the
teletype with the cover on can be found at

The resistor gets extremely hot when the 33 is plugged in.
"Athlon without its fan"-style hot.
