Mike,
I would NOT put in the lamp for the analog dial.  It will make drift of =
the vfo much worse, and I never look at it (except to enjoy that deeeeep =
Drake blue glow, hi hi) for frequency usage anyway.  I don't think I've =
ever replaced the bandswitch lamp, but will look at my parts rig and see =
what would be involved if no one else chimes in soon.  Good to see =
another "TR7 addict".  I'm hopeless.

  As a new TR7 owner, let me first  say that I have waited 25 years to =
own this radio and it is sweet.  Sitting next to my 4 C line and =
residing above the inferior Icom below it.  OK I need to know if the PTO =
lamp should be illuminated on the analogue dial,  the rig has the DR7 =
display,
  and is there a lamp for the band switch?  The schematic I have shows =
DS1 and DS5 as the two lamps in question.  If so, how much of a chore is =
it to change them?
  Thanks,

  Mike   AK7P
