FT-101e Meter issue

Timothy Brown WB2PAY #46 开云体育 While?evaluating?an old rig for a friend, I discovered the meter in a FT-101E is not working. I found using a millivolt source and series current limiting resistor that the meter coil is open. Substituting my Fluke on the 300mv range I was able to get readings, although it is difficult to correlate them to what they would be on an analog meter. ? I could not find? specs on what the micro amp rating?for the meter. ? Searching epay, I found rigs to be parted out but no individual meter movement that has been scavenged from a rig. ? I would be interested in finding data about and ?a source for the meter movement. ? Thanks ? Tim Brown, WB2PAY, Licensed since 1962
Roger VE7LB All Messages By This Member #47 Hi Tim, When I search eBay for FT-101 meter I get about 10 results for S meters including one for $16 delivered. Item # 114863571802 . Before putting in a good meter suggest checking the IC current measurement section resistors first. 73 Roger VE7LB
Timothy Brown WB2PAY #48 开云体育 ? Roger, ? Yes, I agree I have to check the circuit before replacing the meter and destroying a new meter. I will search ebay again and see if I can find the item you mention. Thanks ?
