[JMS] Question About 90800 Meter

[Jim DiMauro]

Don:

Thanks for your reply. It seems as I had suspected. Since I posted my query I found a Millen marked meter and installed it in the exciter.

Since Millen did make most of their stuff post WWII my guess is they probably used a great deal of surplus meters that were available. Some getting new Millen labeled meter faces.
