Degrees is easier on everyone. The Lowell gage is calibrated
in 10' increments, or 1/6° per graduation. A 1.5° in the high
treble isn't really out of line.
**** Thanks for the conversion#  - will use it in future.


You have a vanishingly small crown where the bearing is -0.8°.
The board is dead. You'll likely hear that clearly when the
humidity drops next heating season and the customer complains.

Good rebuild candidate, but I wouldn't recommend it for a
dependable instrument as is.

****Appreciate your opinion - thank you very much.
