The dial I ordered off eBay arrived today. Really nice and clear. I think it is probably printed even better than the originals were. It came all cut out, drilled, and ready to install. I took off the old dial and installed the new one, and installed the chassis in the now finished cabinet. It looks quite good, and works even better than it looks. I have only tested it in the daytime so far, and won't be able to test it well tonight. Our little town is having its Fall Festival, and a friend of mine is staying on the fairgrounds all night as watchman. I will be going down about 9, and staying all night until about 8 in the morning. I did the same last night and will Saturday night too. I'll probably give it a quick check before I drive down before 9 tonight though. Here's what it looks like:
