Just bought a Mackay Marine 3031a. Nice commercial-grade radio. Everything
works, but I have one question. The signal meter worked at first, but after
about 30 mins or so it became inoperable, resting at the far right of the meter
glass. Has anyone experienced something like this? Is it an intermittant
problem with the meter? Any suggestions on how I could check this?

Look for bad electrolytic caps near the meter circuit.
