Biasing

Here we go-

I pulled an 18" piece of shielded nine connector wire with a miniature nine pin plug on the end out of an old broken up radio.
If I went to make a bias probe out of it for 6bq5 I should stick a 1 ohm 1 watt resistor on pin two of a 9x socket and put an insulated aligator clip on either end of the resistor, right? Wrong? Thanx.

Hey, that´s a question, not a claim. That is, am I right about that or not? I mean, if I want to read millivolts with a multimeter.
