Ok, I repaired the tuning cap and reaasembled the thing. I get the lamp to
light with one wire, brighter with a pigtail to nowhere, and about the same
to a real chassis ground. it needs about 7-10 watts to light it depending on
the band. sort of purple at low power then orange with more.Mine also has
a rubber grommet around the bulb thru the chassis. The rubber is petrified
and broken. I made a temporary one from a rubber radio foot. looking for a
new one with a groove to go over the metal. 1/2" chassis opening, 3/8"
hole.
