[Heath] [Heathkit] Heathkit IGW-47 manual

During the 70's I was a Field Technician for Addressograph-Multigraph 
Corporation, later to become AM International.  This company was an OEM for 
automated offset duplicating systems (offset printing presses), typesetters, 
mail room equipment and engineering graphic products so everyone in the 
company was well aware of print quality and accuracy.  One morning our 
branch office service manager handed each of us a handful of brochures 
promoting our service agreement plans.  The front page had a nice color 
photograph of our most recent automated printing system.  Needless to say my 
manager didn't know what to say when I asked why the picture was printed 
backwards.  This brochure was a glossy, professionally created product for 
one of the world's premier duplicator manufacturer and someone flipped the 
negatives over when prepping the brochure.  There must have been tens of 
thousands of these brochures distributed to all of the branch offices in the 
US and possibly worldwide.   If it can happen to them it can happen to 
anyone.  The Heathkit book is great and I will notate it accordingly.

Thanks for a great book,

Tom Chesek

Hi, everyone;

Chris's post caused me to discover that I have mislabeled the EUW-47 in my
book "Heathkit Test Equipment Products."

On page 4-08 I have misidentified the unit as EUW-27. The text in the
accompanying paragraph gets in right, but the heading is wrong. The index
entry on page 23-01 is also wrong. Very sorry about that. Please note the
corrections in your copy.

Best,
