Hi,

I was about to replace the dial lamps on this tuner, but I don't see any?

Am I missing something here?

See Pics.

Thanks,

black thing in between . i have that tuner ,but i can't get to it at the moment.

How about a photo of the front? :yes:

You don't show the front but I assume the wires in the center are for the indicator light and meters.

Some tuners do not have dial lamps and just illuminate the needle pointer. That's the case with my Onkyo T-9 tuner.

Does your station pointer light up? That at least should light up since that has wire leads.

From what I've read it looks like it has a digital frequency display. Does that light up? That could explain why they didn't bother having a fully lit analog dial.

that tuner has both . a flourescent freq. counter , and an analog dial. even when lit
up, it isn't very bright.

Where is the analog dial lit up besides the station pointer?


The center wires on the inside photos look like they light up the meter and an indicator light.

The slide rule cursor on the analog scale looks like my Yamaha CR-800 receiver which lights the plastic station cursor but also does not have any additional dial lamps.

Hi,
Here is a Picture of the front, there is a small blue lamp on the pointer, that is it.

Thanks for your replies.
