It's easy enough to fix this. All I have to do is rotate the gain control clockwise and the needle will spring to life again and work just fine. Still, I'm curious about why it happens. I'd say it happens about once a month. Any ideas? Maybe a small bit of dust got in there and hangs the meter mechanically? Yeah, sounds like it just gets hung up. He might want to check with Drake to see how much a replacement meter is, or to see if they have a quick fix for it. dxAce Michigan USA |
