WWII Western Electric Panel Meter





This is a recently acquired WWII Western Electric panel meter.  I'll use this in an upcoming amplifier build.  It's very rare to find these in the original boxes, with the date and intended use.  This meter, which has the U.S. Navy stamp on the back and a date of March 8, 1945, would have been used with a U.S. Naval Doppler Radar system during WWII.
