[Milsurplus] GRC-9 Dial Light experiment 3-A

[Hubert Miller]

Friends, here is a dial view GRC-9 receiver with a ' Maglite Solitaire 1-Cell AAA ' bulb bought from our local Ace hardware.
The bulbs are in a 2 - pack for about $2.50
The adapter I made uses the base from a bayonet bulb.
Draw is 250 mA at 1.6 VDC.
This was not real hard to make, some minutes, but it was not fun. It is no Heathkit. It looks kinda crude, but hell, it works
and I'm going to leave it plugged in.
I have some other photos. I recently got a Photobucket account and I might post them there, but I have this nagging feeling
I need to get back to real life matters now. Maybe someone else could receive my photos and text on how I did this and
post wherever.
It was very difficult to get a decent photo, as the camera has a hard time dealing with the bright dial against the ambient
dark.
