Eric, The bulbs are mounted in sockets on the power supply pcb directly behind the meter movements. Once you have sourced the correct bulbs they are a simple replacement. On my 78 I have the meter sh

I also have the meter doubler circuit on my 78 and found a program on the web that will let you draw a perfect meter scale. I seriously considered doing it until I realized that just pasting the pape

Mark: Could you use some kind of solvent to remove the ink from the original scale? Then put the new one on top of the old. I have the same situation with an old Johnson Ranger. Haven't figured out h

Mark -- Is it possible to open up the meter and remove the scale? Is the scale an integral pasrt of the meter movement? If so, is there a solvent available that can remove the "printing"? In the mean

Some time ago I looked at the Alpha amplifier meters from that era. I had a bad multimeter in a 78. From what I could understand at the time the movements were made by Modutec, I think they are now p

I don't know the rig, but can the original meter card be replaced with a thin sheet of plastic and the paper scale clamped over it? -- Ron KA4INM - There is nothing like twelve inches of snow to make

Eric, I believe the scale is removable in the 78/x74 as it is in 77 series. Another alternative is to out-source the scale to RAMMETERS.com. I know they've re-done old 78/x74 meter scales using the o
