Yes SPCh, thanks, that's the one.

My third full-size Avo arrived today, a Model 40, serial number 83505 40/10/78. Having read through nearly all this thread, this instrument would appear to be one of the latest Model 40s. It has P.F. sockets (what were these for?) and the serial number appears not on the scale plate, but on an aluminised label on the right-hand side of the case.

After re-fixing the plastic window in position it seems to work perfectly.
