Heath Co./Heath manuals

Hello everybody, I am a newbie here.  KC7ZPK.   I noticed that  Heath is
still around for parts and such.  But apparently they charge $30.00 and do
not do good reproductions?   I just got a W7FG Vintage Manual (Service Type)
for my TS-830S and they do not have the Heathkit Packkit 232  or HK232
listed.   I picked it up at the Glacier Hamfest.  Since I am real new and
JUST a Technician,,, yes I have been reading, does anybody have any good
suggestions were I can get a manual and schematic.

I build my first Heathkit in 1957  while a electronics major at Benson
Polytechnic Highschool.  Boy have things changed.

Good idea George.   One of the major problems of my life has been a lack of
manuals.   That is always the second thing I look for after I cannot fix it.
