Kenwood TM-732A Pilot Lamps
 

This seems to be my month for pilot lamps going out. Does anyone have
a service manual on the Kenwood TM-732A? I need to know what kind of
lamps are used at PL1, PL2, PL3 and PL4. They are used to illuminate
the LCD display. They are incandescent, and appear to be similar to
the 12V, 7219 lamps like my Icom uses. However, they are wired in
series as pairs with a 10-ohm resistor in line with each pair. That
would lead me to believe that they are not 12V.

Thanks. Interesting site. Somewhat surprised at the price of the
lamps. $3.57 each. They look very similar to the ones I purchased
from Mouser for 29-cents for my Icom. Must be something special about
them. Or maybe it's just because it comes from Kenwood.
