Dear Sirs,

In reply to yours of the 16th inst. we beg to advise you that your Model 1 Milli-Voltmeter No. 22596. required 13.7 M.A. for full scale deflection.

Yours truly,
WESTON ELECTRICAL INSTRUMENT COMPANY.

[Signature]

[Handwritten Note]
Resistance corresponding to full scale deflection is therefore
.150 / .0137 = 10.94 w.
for 22407 this would be about
.975x 10.94 = 10.66.
