I'm still looking for a set of schematics for a TI Silent 700 Model
745 terminal, or the complete service manual if reasonably priced.
Given that the terminal only cost me $10, I'm not really interested in
a $30 manual. :-) Thanks for any pointers.

Mike,
If you find even a $30 manual you will be lucky. I had a manual and may
hae one for some
of the Silent 700's i maintaned at the University of Southwester, La in
the 70's..
the bad news is that a lot of the parts are private labeled in them and
were not available then
other than by cannabilizing other terminals, or by hit and miss guesses
from the drawings as
to what parts did.
TI made them to be servicable by themselves, and used private internal
TI numbers that
were not publicly cross referenced.
So if you got a pile of the 745's you can get a manual and maybe make
one work, but
fixing one may be a bit of a problem.
