Realistic STA-225
#25

Glad you got it all working. Dial looks great with the LED illumination. If you use LEDs for the pointer illumination, make sure to add the shunt resistors and I think there will be no problems with the circuit.

Did you remove the 100 ohm 5 Watt resistor? The 300 ohm resistor should be fine there also.

What exactly does the Auto-magic do? I saw a circuit on the schematic which senses when you touch the tuning knob. It says something about defeating AFC. Does this make the meter change color too?

Where do you get the LED fuse lamps? I have a Sansui receiver which need new lamps and it seems LEDs are definitely the way to go.
