What do you mean by bad?

:)

I'm guessing too little/much resistance  :)

Anyway you can let us know which resistor it is in case anyone else has 
the same problem?

I would have thought that a failing resistor that provide impedance 
loading would cause a card to produce echo, which could explain some 
poor soul's situations.
