I do find the arrangement a little bit cumbersome, but I understand the
issue involved.

That said, I got the proffered No. 19 set, and I am not exactly sure what
I am doing yet, but the basic design of the A set seems reasonably
straightforward.

The unit has had the meter gutted and wires soldered the the Pye connectors
in order to hook it up.

So, I guess my FIRST question is what the meter movement is. I gather
from the schematic that it's an ammeter but I don't know what resistance
or full-scale current.

And my second question is where I get Pye sockets so I can hook up a
couple bench supplies.

Looking at this, it appears to have been badly butchered over the years,
with a lot of substitutions made. I don't think I am going to have the
time to get this one up and running for Field Day. This year anyway.
