Hugo, I know you are an extremely busy man so I know that it will be very difficult for you to get to this. As I do not have my unit here yet I can't see what the LCD connectors and such are. Can you please let me know the LCD display manufacturer and model so that I can dig up the specs and see how they mesh with the "drop-in" VFD replacements? Futaba promises it is no harder than changing a lighbulb. (I think one of their marketers must have worked in Redmond at one time.)
