Great blog! I've been super-impressed with coil64, in the past up until a few months ago I'd use spreadsheets with formulas for coils, but coil64 has given very good results with each scenario I've tried with it.
For RF work there are expensive RF resistors, but another option (the cheaper/simpler option I go with) is as you say to just use normal thick film resistors - e.g. to buy a few hundred 49.9 ohm and 100 ohm standard thick film resistors, and then just measure them if the ultimate accuracy is needed (usually not).
