Hi Dave. I received a PM from Ian, who said virtually the same thing but with the names reversed!

I shall be delighted to post the meter to either of you, but please agree between yourselves who wants it… I don’t think it’s a basket case, but it needs work. As far as I recall, it was given to me by Paul Adams and I’ve no idea of its past history. The movement is 1mA FSD and it has the Type D scale. I have undertaken some work on it, but too far back to recall what I did. It’s probably the only Avo restoration that I didn’t complete successfully, so I hope one of you will be able to conclude the matter.

Here are some pics taken today. The bit of red tape is holding the Q knob in place; I don’t think the Type D had a Q knob, just a fixed button?

Ian, thanks for your PM to which I’ll respond in more detail in due course.

Phil
