[TenTec] Night vision for Ten Tec Argosy 525

[Mike Bryce]

marvin,

I’m not sure and this is coming from  memory, but I think there is (was) a small lamp in the bezel that shined down on the skirt. Very much like the old triton’s did.

Look at the rig upside down and see if you can’t spy the glass tube of a grain of wheat bulb lurking above the dial skirt

> I recently got a Ten Tec Argosy 525 at a local hamfest for a fantastic price.  It has a serial # in the 600's, so I know it has the latest receiver improvements that Ten Tec made over its production run.  My only complaint with it is that you cant see the dial skirt markings in low lighting conditions ( I have the analog dial version) .   Through Google , I was able to find an article in the "QRp Journal" entitled " nite lighting for the Ten-Tec Argosy 525", but the link to it is now dead.  Can someone provide me a link or copy of the article?  Thanks, Marvin , WB4OKM
