	Hi , guy ! I too had an aging Tek scope that I was rebuilding.
Requests for documentation from Tek only brought laughter , since it 
was a vintage 1961 product. I could have lived without comments that
the last known schematics were carved on clay tablets !
	Enter a local university student . He said that there had been
many scopes donated to the school over the years , and even though they
were long gone , the manuals and schematics were still in the archives.
Due to his dedicating an afternoon in a dusty basement , I was able to
copy a complete manual for a long-deceased product and resurrect the
ailing scope.
	Sooo... give your local institution of higher learning a try.

      ( It was a 531a or I'd send you mine...)
