[ARC5] Missing meter in Phantom Antenna A-61-A (#7777)

There is an article in the April 1953 issue of Radio-Electronics magazine about the BC-442-A that includes a chart of current measurements vs. meter reading.  It is available online on the American Radio History website:

Magazine pages 80 & 82, pdf pages 48 & 49.

Why would you want them adjustable?  A simple conversion chart of meter 
indication (0, 1, 2,...10) versus actual RF current would seem to be 
sufficient.  And that would certainly be a bodge (in my view), but well 
accepted and time tested - think of the LM and BC-221 frequency meters 
among dozens of other examples...high praise indeed...heh, heh...
