I just finished Alignment and Test, Part I... Will begin Assembly, Part 
II. Maybe tonight after the Baseball game.
First a couple of points. It was on this reflector about how to install 
the Tilt Bail and until I remember it I really struggled with it. Using  
4 very long (1.5") 4-40 screws I loosely attached the bail. After 
tightening them and aligning the bail and feet I replaced each screw 
with the recommended length screw, nut and lock washer. During the Part 
I, tests I noticed that LED BAR GRAPH segment 2 & 3 didn't light up I'm 
thinking a badly soldered pair of pins AND on the LCD display the 
Segment above the letter "A" part of the segment doesn't lite "B's" look 
like "E's" again I'm thinking of solder connections.  At present I don't 
want to unassemble #4948 to look for them with additional information. 
OBTW I did build the RF PROBE,  FREQ COUNTER PROBE & VOLT METER PROBES   
to use the on board systems
