Thanks! The camera is actually in really good shape - the shutter blades are clean, it fires at all speeds correctly. I pulled the front ring around the lens off to check the CdS cell for resistance in both light and dark. It seems to be reacting as it should. The wire connections to the photo cell are new, indicating to me that this camera must have been CLA'd at some point in its history. Given that, i'd really like to get the meter sorted out so I will have a fully functional camera. I've tinkered with meters on a 35RC before, but given this camera's functionality (minus the meter in its current state), I want to approach this fix with some extra care. Are there other parts I can trouble-shoot before I adjust the meter itself?
