Can someone please enlighten another newb as to why/how this happens and how, without the new resistors, can it be prevented, if possible?

Thanks ahead of time.

It happens when your antenna wire touches the battery terminal which in short... shorts your reciever board because it is sending power and radio signals out while the batteries try to send pure, raw, unregulated power in... Causing the resistor to overload and get so hot it either burns up, catches on fire, or just melts down... REMOVE YOUR BATTERIES BEFORE WORKING ON YOUR CAR!!! Is that clear enough? Good Luck....
