[R-390] Testing old original meters for the R-390A

[Larry H]

Bob,  The carrier level is pretty easy - it's a 17.5 ohm 1 ma dc full scale meter.  You can easily measure the resistance of it.  The deflection is easiest measured with a vom in series with it connected to a battery and pot to adjust current.  About 1.5v and 5k pot.

Regards, Larry

I would like to know the best method of using a VTVM to test the 
functionality of said meters.

I need to figure out if they are functional, or I have to pursue another 
pair.

The corner screws are green and will be getting replaced with ones from 
my vast good clean steel hardware collection.
