Cecil,

Actually, I have the entire manual, and BIG wiring diagrams.

It really is a pretty hot receiver.  The only issue I have is the meter 
got blown when I reached behind to change one of the two #47 bulbs.  
Right now, a replacement meter is not in the budget. Fixing them is 
pretty well out of the question too.

It is a 250uA movement.  The closest I have is a 200uA movement. the 
body may fit the hole, but the rest is far too large.

Regards,
Bob - N0DGN
