Hey Steve,
Thanks for the note. My dial light went out also on my Corsair II. I was just thinking of trying an LED. Took the guess work out of it for me. Thanks a lot.

While I was waiting patiently for Ten Tec to come out with a Corsair III, the meter light in my Corsair II blew out. Rather than drive to Rockford to buy a new lamp, I decided to try replacing it with an LED unit. I bought one from superbrightleds.com, and it is their model BA9S-WHP9. It is the cool white light model. It really lights up that meter, and despite the back of the meter being somewhat yellow from age, it makes it really readable. They go for about $10.

73,

Steve WA9JML
