Default Ten-Tec RX340 meter lamp replacement

Anyone have any experiences using LEDs to replace bulbs on receivers?


The diode current would be the main concern as far as I can see. A
common maximum LED current is 20 ma., so you'd have to calculate the
resistance value needed to limit the current using the voltage available
at the bulb socket.

You could probably use the old base from the bulb to make up an LED
assembly, so that NO soldering or rewiring is needed inside the radio.
