Thanks to Don K9TTY for pointing out the error of my ways in inappropriately searching for a couple of HAL manuals.....Bill Henry was kind enough to chime in and let me know that ALL of the technical publications at HAL all the way back to 1967 are archived and reprints can be had for a nominal sum (I had forgotten that I had purchased a copy of the DS-2100 (?) CRT tuning display from them several years ago, well after that unit was out of production).  I honestly thought they were in the public domain and thus available as they are for gear from other manufacturers.

In an interesting point Bill told me that HAL must maintain the copyright on ALL their materials in order to protect the copyright on material relating to currently offered products.....who'da thunk?

Thanks again Don and Bill.

BTW, been supporting HAL since my first ST-6 kit in 1979.
