Ok, So I have a VER2 HRD that has had the R78 and R79 box resistors overheating and burning the board traces addressed and fixed. Looking to replacing with a newer version.....Do the HRD III and IVs have the same problem or has it been addressed? Thanks

Brown color ( heat) on circuit board, do not mean there is a issue

HRD ; R78 and R79 are 5 watts 470 ohms resistor, heating is normal.
I will solder resistor at least 1/8 inches ( or more at 1/4 " ) from circuit board.

About HRD III and IV, are same ? I don't know if resistor are too close from the board. Schematic I have show same value
