I have had several people contact?me recently about a missing page in the online SR-2000 Operation and?
Service manual. Page 32 is missing from a most of online manuals. Very important, shows important alignment information.
For the record I have found only one source that provides a complete manual.
?jptronics.org ??

A majority of acceptance is not proof of correctness.

Actually Walt I also have the complete manual. And actually, it's
more?recent then the one on jptronics. The info in the addendum is already
rolled into the manual along with the updated schematic. And no assembly or tape
is required with my manuals.

Hi all, many of us are following along with the forum, trying to learn and/or help, and certainly cannot afford to buy a manual for every rig, let alone every version, so professional manuals are not an option for us; unless maybe we happen to have the exact rig in question, in which case any proper manual copy should do for me at least. If somebody is in the business of turning rigs over for a profit, it would be good to have a good exact copy, of an unmarked, archived manual. ??I have no idea as to who to go to for the quality I might want. Wrong versions can be a problem, at least with Halligans stuff. ?And PS, I am just thinking out loud in my situation; others are free do likewise. ? ?

Hmmmm, ?I’ve never paid for a manual. They are free on the Internet. I go to Walmart buy a ream of heavy bond paper which makes great manual pages.?

Obviously, as the old saying goes, "you get what you pay for". A lot of the
manual stuff floating around the Internet is of poor quality, poor readability,
questionable completeness, and a wonder if the person scanning the document did
it with one or both eyes closed. And personally, I really don't care what you
do; some people?are happy with?expectations that are lower then
others. Been doing this stuff for roughly 30 years with customers in all 50
states and 150 countries,? so there are many that value the work. Plus, I
also do speciality manual replications for several amateur radio retailers for
resale. And if the demand ever goes to zero, we'll have a lot of fun at the
paper recycling center.

HAHA,
WellPete, thanks for your thoughts. You sound a bit sour this morning. Cheer up, it's Terrific Thursday.
I've had great luck with reproduction from the Internet. Print and photo quality is beyond?ample and the price and delivery time is right!? It's nice to have a hard copy (mid-century habits die hard)? but life is a lot more fun when one can display the information on a 100" screen or whiteboard and draw a modified circuit over the original.?
