Riders Manuals


 

I just received a DVD I bought on FleaBay that contains volumes 1-23 of the Riders Manuals.? I scanned through a little of it and found pages of radios I've never even heard of!

Ryder published manuals for nearly anything a repair shop might run
into. They redrew schematics to make them uniform. There were a couple
of other pubishers of service data but I think Ryder was about the best.
A service shop could subscribe to Ryder's service and get information
on new equipment when it was put on the market.

Same stuff but also the Index to locate which volume to find what you are looking for:

Most of this stuff floating around ebay and the web was scanned back in the 90's so resolution of the pages and schematics is of analog quality.
Fortunately, I have all 23 volumes in real paper, including addendums, updates, etc. and with a digital scanner/printer, the resolution is light years better.

That would be more convenient than the paper set I have :).?? I think 14 is the volume with most of the ham gear.

When I started collecting in 1975, I spent as much time tracking down Rider's manuals as I did searching for radios. This was long before the 'Net, so hard-copy manuals were essential.?

Times have changed. At a swapmeet last year, there was a table with Rider's manuals free for the taking, and no one seemed interested in taking any.
