[Boatanchors] AR88 S meter

[Sandy]

I had a Japanese "S" meter that I mounted behind the "S" meter cutout in the 
AR-88 I had.  (I sold it as I was unable to handle it anymore...too heavy!) 
I mounted it on a phenolic sheet cutout to fit the meter and secured to the 
chassis.  It looked quite good.  Circuit stolen from the RSGB Handbook.  The 
original RCA circuit on the CR-88 schematic needs a "backwards" meter! 
(Zereo on the right hand side instead of left hand side)  The RSGB schematic 
lists a circuit that works fine with a regular forward reading meter.

73,
