Is there some trick to getting the indicator lamp evenly spaced between the frequency bands? Seems like no matter what I try the light is too far to the left. Seems to me it should be evenly spaced between the two.

I forgot how the pointer is formed: could you show the way it is formed and how you tried to change it?

Hello Jim, I have done several 89s. The trick is to move the drum in or out on it's shaft. You will need to loosen a set screw on the drum to do that.

Thank you Dan, that was the trick. I kept trying to rebend the lamp bracket but that wasn't doing anything to help.

Bending the lamp bracket (moving the lamp, that is) can possibly change the shape of the pointer a bit, but not its location.

Well thankfully that did not happen.
