Anybody got a copy of the schematic that's in the back of the user

and drawers high and low, and can't find my book anywhere ... I
thought that the 'net would be awash with copies of the schematic,
but it seems only for the Mk 2, which is totally different to the MK
4.
TIA

Is it the circuit diagram at
http://www.radiomuseum.org/r/avo_uni...er_8_mk_i.html ?
(Registration necessary for download. I have not done it as mine's a
Mk II.)

Hi Robin, thanks for that. It would appear to be the correct one. Looks
as though you need to pay to become a member, so I will hold off for
now until all the feelers that I have out, run dry. It's really
annoying because I have owned the meter from new when I was an
apprentice, and I have the book, which has the schematic in it,
carefully filed away somewhere, but I'm buggered if I can now find it.
It is in a box file, but said boxfile is not where I know it should be.
Even more annoying is that I have damaged the meter by my own
stupidity, so now have the need to fix it ... :-(

There may be an outside chance its turned up on
alt.binaries.e-book.technical at some time or other.

Whether I'd have downloaded it is another matter, and it would take a
while to search my archives.

You could try a REQ: on that group while I try to remember where I put
all the unsorted stuff.


Thanks Ian. Be appreciated if you were able to have a quick look.
Wouldn't have been a problem back in our old TeleMag days. John would
have flung an ad in "Help Wanted" for me ... :-)


All I found is the AVO 8 MKII user manual with schematic and a document
claiming to be the AVO 8 service manual, its a collection of pages in
typewriter font describing servicing proceedures - no illustrations.

If you want them name a binaries I can upload to.

Have you tried BAMA? - I haven't been there since they changed their
website to stop people like me leeching the whole lot - they've
undoubtedly added new stuff since then.

A friend of mine has access to Model 8 I, II, III, V, VI, and VII , but no
IV. Curious ... Interestingly, I have now found my book, which I was
absolutely certain was issued to me with the meter, and it's for a
Mk III , which is entirely different. Hmmm ...

I just went and looked at a BAMA mirror site, and lo ! I have found a file
that says it's for the Mk IV. I've downloaded it, but now need to find some
software to open it. It says that it is .DJVU format ??
