If Carl is still around, you would be able to get an 
entire SB-220 replacement input assembly from 
him.  Last known working Email address: 
k1mh@juno.com if memory serves.   I might be 
able to supply very small quantifies of the exact 
or very similar coil forms used in the SB-220 
should Carl not have them.  There are a number 
of "conversion to six meter" guys out there that 
should be able to help you. 
-
The average movement value for the SB-220 is 
200uA    I have original Heath meter movements 
for $50 each.  I bought them for my own use but 
have many spares.  I've never advertised them 
as I'm not a dealer, nor do I think the price is 
cheap enough to attract much attention, but I 
do have them for people who want original 
matching Heathkit meter parts. 
-
Martin Tippin is selling SB-220 front panels on 
Ebay for $50 each.  Normally I would just live 
with the unsightly holes many hams have 
butchered into SB-220's to add an unneeded 
relay bypass switch...  but some of the folks 
I do work for are willing to pay for "complete 
restoration. "  Martin's panels have slightly 
larger (better in my opinion) lettering and the 
color is a slightly sweeter Heathkit style green. 
-
People who insist on a bypass switch in 
my restorations get it in the form of a pull 
knob function on the meter pot. 
-
that's pretty much it...

1.   Does anyone have available a 20M (L3) and 15M (L2) input coils they
might part with?



2.   What is the full scale meter movements for both the plate and
multimeter?  I have 2 open meters and need to replace them.  Original
Heath
meters not necessasry for my plans.  I will only need to monitor plate
and
grid current.
