[R-390] Dial lights, 6082 tubes

[Barry]

You only have to remove the escutcheon (4 x 6-32 screws) to access the dial 
lamps.

Of course, who'd want to pass up a chance to drop the front panel.  <grin>

Hi, group,

Can it really be necessary to remove the front panel of a 390 or 390A in 
order to change the dial lights??? Surely not! The rest of these sets is so 
impressively designed that it's hard to believe such a huge hassle would be 
required for a simple lamp change.
Also, does anyone know of a source for 6082 voltage regulator pass-element 
tubes? I think availability these is going to be the Achilles heel of our 
390/URR operability!

73,

Ian VA3ODA
