I'm sure that these are rare. I was in a place 10 years ago that I was able to purchase a number of the end-of-life manuals with all the updates, expensive but I thought it worth it. I couldn't do it again even if they were available. The irritating thing about the manuals is that Agilent expanded single page schematics and put them in the large page format which then made a single page schematic, onto 3 11.5x18" pages; hence the large size of the manuals. I wouldn't have an issue with having someone who has the right equipment scan the manuals but it's going to be a lot of work for someone since the theory and parts lists are on 11x8.5" pages followed by the schematics or block diagrams on 11x18" (?) pages.
I purchased the full set from Keysight which is 4 volumes but I can't locate Vol1 at the moment.
Thanks Richard, it's generous of you to be open to this. I've looped in
Dave at Artek who scans these manuals as a business and does a nice
job. I expect he has a scanner that can do the large pages in one piece
and can stitch the parts together, but he can confirm. If not, I've been
looking at a used scanner that can do that size (which I've been
considering anyway) and do them myself. I know of software that can
stitch images like this together and would be willing to put in the
effort, though I've never used this before so will have to give it a
test run first.
Where are you located? Obviously something local would be preferred, but
would you be open to shipping them (which others can subsidize) if not?
