My 152 goes thru beacon bulbs way too often.
One of the contacts in the bulb socket has a bad spring and makes a bad connection with the bulb.
This generates heat and the contact on the bulb melts away.
So if anyone that has replaced their beacon for a self contained LED beacon and
happens to have an old beacon assembly laying around that they wouldn't mind parting with, let me know.

Thanks
