I was thinking that  "universal" referred to the fact that it could be 
used with AC or DC.  The armature being chrome plated on one side.  So 
you removed and turned it over before replacing it to select AC or DC.  
The resistor has a tap on it, but I don't recall if you also change 
that, seems that would be the logical reason for having the tap.

You said "tomorrow" yesterday.
