Rogers 10-85 cabinet all done
#5

There is a small light bulb in the dial scale that is tied to a grid on one of the IF tubes. As the signal changes, this bulb glows brighter. The reason that I asked is because it is hard to find a suitable bulb. I used one of the very small "grain of wheat" bulbs.  - - going from memory - - It is easy to miss this function altogether.

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
