Re: Hallicrafters and National Matsushita Generator manuals

Hallicrafters S-200?4 tubes and?5 bands.
Hallicrafters S-210? 6 tubes and 6 bands

You can draw your own conclusions about "similar"!
?
Although they both come in a simulated type wood?case style, rectangular style dial, and they both come with 4 knobs.

Get the correct manual aand schematic.
?
National (Matsushita) labeled AM Signal Generator VP-8271A, I believe, was not sold in the U.S. Some of the "VP" labeled stuff from them was sold under the Panasonic name here in the U.S.?Don't know if the VP-8271A was one of them. Try searching just under the Panasonic name.

Greeting fellow Hallicrafters Enthusiasts,
I'm looking for two manuals:

1. The Hallicrafters S-200 or S-210 manual, or specifically the S-210 Schematic. I have a working S-210, that I re-capped, but it needs an alignment. I was told by someone at HI-FI Audio that they use the S-200 schematic in place of the S-210, so their S-210 kit does not contain an actual S-210 schematic.
Are these two radios that similar, and if so does anyone have the S-200 schematic/manual???

2. Any chance anyone here have a manual for the National (Matsushita) AM Signal Generator VP-8271A? I believe this generator was from the early 1980, possibly the late 70s. I came across this at a swap-meet and paid $20 for it, and it works. Unfortunately, the output sign-wave is slightly distorted, so it needs a little TLC.
On the Bama site there is a VP-8181A listed, but that's a digital generator, the VP_8271A is an Analog 100 to 30 mHz.
Thank you in advance,
-Drew
