George, One of the orange books that kept me in this profession. I met Page Borchetta in Hong Kong not long after a read this manual. It was 110% my pleasure - meeting her and reading the manual.
And I have a hardcopy that I recently loaned to a college in the office. I'd be glad to scan this into PDF for you. While on the subject of old guides and manuals, does anyone have a copy of the first half of "The Kreutzer Report" that they would like to scan and send me?
