LA50 Manuals

Dave, I managed to work out that the knob came off with just a bit more force (I am always worried about breaking things by applying too much force to something that is supposed to be removed in some other way). I was able to see enough of the PSU that it looked safe to try applying power. I know this is still a bit rash, but thankfully the PSU was OK and the printer came up just fine. So for the moment I am happy, but if anyone does have a PDF of those manuals it would be great. Incidentally, a while back you responded to an email about the H7140 PSU interested in a couple of bits of information from the printset for the newer design, would you be able photograph a couple of pages? I am interested in the Input Assembly and the Bias and Interface board. On the latter I have a specific question: My bias and interface board had what looked like a broken track, and it did look broken rather than deliberately cut. Could you tell me if the collector of Q2 (p87 of the older printset on bitsavers) is connected to anything? If so, what is it connected to? Unfortunately I don't have IRC so we'll have to rely on email. I didn't know that Middleton Top was open to the public and steamed. As a teenager I used to hire a bike on the Tissington Trail to go rock climbing at Harborough Rocks (I still climb today). I'll take the family next time it is in steam as today is not likely to be possible. I live in Stockport and guess you don't live too far away from me. Regards Rob archivist I at
