Radio front panels are busy - lots of knobs and buttons with small labels that seem to shrink as we age. Some of the colors are low-contrast. If room lighting isn't right, they're unreadable, even invisible. Here is a small, LED, clip-on lamp that solved the problem for me:

I've clipped it to the low shelf on which my rigs sit and positioned the light to illuminate front panels without glare into my eyes. It runs on USB power (not supplied) and works a treat! 73, /Rick N6XI -- Rick Tavan Truckee and Saratoga, CA ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
