Hi Group,
I just received an ANSCO A-10A Bubble sextant but the bubble chamber seems to be one third full and needs a refill. Unfortunateley I am not able to locate the refill "hole" under the bubble assembly and was not able to find it in the manual drawings either. By the way the refill procedure is not mentionned in the manual, only the type of fluid: alcohol. As I don't want to drill a hole anywhere in the bubble assembly body, could any member of this group familiar with the A-10A bubble type sextants provide me with some directions or recommendations to locate the dedicated refill aperture and on the refilling produre itself.
Thanks in advance for any advice on this topic.
