Does it come with backlight?
(I see some small nuts on the backside, beside contacts)
 
I don't believe so, there would be another pair of extended screw terminals.
 
Standard value, determined by external resistor network as defined by the VU standard.
 
Brand new proper Simpson 3.5" (smaller) meters with (not nearly so stylish) more modern bakelite cases are $148 apiece, for perspective.
 
My Triplett meters, all of them, are the biz wrt performance !

And I'm talking about the more modest ones. Overengineered to the max, big ones are rare in this day and age.

I've bought top shelf stuff from Emrr a number of times and what's the hurry ? Quality costs and takes time to find the right buyer.

If I were 20yrs younger I'd jump at these,  and a bunch of other things from ..  like those traffos from the day!
