I was able to locate a miniscule fragment of something between the moving coil and the magnet which I was able to remove. I am happy to report that my 60 year old 50ua meter is now working like new. Thanks to all who gave me their advice. Hopefully I can return the favor at some point. 73 / Steve / VE7SL Web: "THE VE7SL RADIO NOTEBOOK" at http://www.imagenisp.ca/jsm
