Hi All,

Can one change the contrast of the LCD of an HP-75C/D? If yes, how?

Thanks!

Hello Namir,
You have to open-up the 75 and manually adjust the LCD contrast with the potentiometer on the memory board.

That says it all! Was counting on keystroke sequence.

At least they didn't do like the Sharp PC-1211 and put a pot in there, but glue it in place so you can't adjust it.
