[ICOM] IC-735 Help Needed

[Mike Olbrisch]

The lamps are 12-14V.  You can buy ICOM replacements.  They are about $2.50
each, but they last a while.  Or you can go to Radio Shack, pay $1.29 for two,
and replace them more often.

Or - you can do what I am doing to every radio I own as they need it.  I am
dumping the lamps and installing BRIGHT WHITE LEDs, and a dropping resistor.
And once done, I have not had to replace another.
