Thank you, Mike.

I remeasured the voltage applied to the LED and, yes, it was only 1.5 volts.

Long story short: I did some recalculations and found that I needed a 20 ohm dropping resistor. I didn't have a 20, but I found an old carbon comp 22 ohm that had drifted up to 32 ohms. So I used it in place of the 390.

The LED is now getting 2 volts and I'm satisfied with that.

The dial pointer goes out when the receiver is in PHONO 1, PHONO 2 or AUX mode (but the dial remains lit).

I'll post a circuit later showing the entire LED conversion.
