Folks,

I lucked into an NC-44 and speaker at a local hamfest on Saturday. It's 
now recapped and playing reasonably well.

The pilot lamps and sockets are completely missing. R23, 132 ohms/ 10 
watts with tap for the lamps, in series with the filament string (this 
is an AC/DC set) has been replaced with a modern 136 ohm unit. There is 
no sign of lamp wiring.

This radio has a really nice slide-rule dial that's crying out for 
illumination. If you have one of these, please take a look at it and let 
me know what's in there and how they are mounted.

VY 73,
Al
