Hi, All:
I have restored one of these before, and for the life of me I don't remember this. See the attached photo. This is the bracket that the dial lamp is on. I believe, from a couple of screw holes dangerously near the speaker opening, that the bracket was screwed to the inside of the radio face, again, like less than 1/4" below the speaker opening. I'm guessing I just jerked the screws out when I pulled the chassis. Is this how this dial lamp was mounted originally? There is for sure no way I can see to mount that bracket to the chassis and get the dial lamp anywhere near the dial. But I sure don't see how you would put those screws in after the chassis was in place.
