When you say the pot is working on yours does it go the full range of brightness i.e. from zero/off all the way to 100%/maximal brightness? Or does it just slightly dim the screen?
That "My reply is at the bottom..." is part of the "on so-and-so date Joe Blow wrote...". I suppose I could alter that to say "(standard header)" somesuch.
Now about the pot, it turns easily and gives the full range of brightness. I found a few knobs on Ebay for the IBM 5151 monitor that seem like they might work. They have a similar sun icon too. I might get one just to see. If it doesn't work, I can probably adapt something without a pointer that comes close and cobble something to mate with the pot.
