Radial lights read from edge to centre or vice versa, twenty of each. A two-word locale in the innermost circuit, and seven of its elements (one hyphened) in the circuit next to the outer one, read clockwise. The unclued lights (one plural) could be useful if you need a lift, though their unshared letters might show you MISSED. Elsewhere ignore an accent.
