I sent Norm a separate message, but remembered a note on one of the other
lists. So I'm sending him a second note with this clipping. Might be useful
to others here.

RE: T-195 meters
Not easy to find. The "Audio Level" meter is a 600 ohm VU instrument in a
1.25" military case. I used to run into these with reasonable frequency at
East Coast flea markets. This meter is nice to have but not necessary for
operating the rig. The "Test" meter has custom scales for battery (input)
voltage, and PA grid and cathode current printed on with the radioactive
paint used back then. This one is hard to find. A 1.25", 25ma instrument
can be substituted here and in normal operation all readings come up
nominally at mid-scale.

I have not tested the suitability of these replacements, so YMMV.
