Subject: [Leica] Metrastar Meter: is it adjustable?

If this is the handheld Metrastar (and not the camera-mounted meter made by 
Metrastar)  , there is a zero adjust screw on the back.The back plate also 
has graphic instructions about how to do this. Of course you need a 
PX-625/PX-13  mercury cell to run the thing.

I wish I could find a new photocell so I could restore my Metrastar to 
accurate function. I know that newer better meters exist but I liked the 
ergonomic of this Metrastar. The meter place in Calif. (forgot their name) 
could not help.
