Hi Don

I when down to the heap and found a conecentric dial chassis. Replacing the lamp is easy...

Step1 Remove bezel by pushing it in turning it. It turns just a little.
#2 Remove dial pointer by pulling up. It has a flat on it so don't turn it.
#3 Remove wire ring that holds dials in place.
#4 Remove dial.
#5 Remove lamp.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!
