Or did National design it that way because they had a backwards meter circuit that pulled full current with zero signal? This is a backward meter by National. The meter deflects left when current flows. The radio must have had a backwards meter amplifier then. Weird. Guess one could design a proper solid state amplifier to make it work, but you'd have to 'zero' the meter at full scale with no signal. I guess the meter will drift to the right when power is applied to the radio with no signal. Weird. I'm going to have to find the schematic to the HRO and figure it out. I meant drift to the LEFT when power is applied. |
