Yes, sir, that's the beastie.  The calibration chart (a roller chart)
would be stowed somewhere with the lid since it wouldn't be needed
real often.  My unit is a BC-BG-183 and the manual I have is for a
BC-RL-183 which makes me wonder a whole lot about the identification
scheme used for them since they appear identical.

By the way, if anyone has a chart they'd be willing to copy for me or
a spare they can part with, I'd be eternally grateful.  Actually, a
whole lid assembly would be ubercool.

Best regards,

Michael, WH7HG
