That site seems to have a lapsed registration. The URL points to the generic ad (non-hifi) page from the people who got the name. So that takes care of your need for the viewer!

I think he was referring to this one: ValveAudio

Hmm.... That link sends me to a picture of a pretty little girly-wirly

I was playing with three or four of those this morning (all natural blondes too).
Then my alarm clock went off

When Protel introduced their windows version, they used to make the DOS version available as freeware. Then when they introduced their later version (Protel 99), they made the old windows version (2.8, I think) available for freeware.

They don't seem to do this anymore. The closest thing I found was a Altium viewer, but I don't know if it will support the old file formats:

You can also do an internet search to see if some other site still has the Protel download still available as freeware. Good luck.

Chacal,

why not just ask David Lumanauw to E-mail you the schematic you're interested in, in a readable format.
Mr Lumanauw is a bright and regular poster at this forum.

(The girl looks familiar, similar number, then i got arrested)

CHACALPOWERS · 6th September 2007, 07:58 PM

Ok dear Jacco, good idea, I will try the e-mail contact.

Thank you very much.

CHACALPOWERS · 6th September 2007, 08:01 PM

Ok mr. Chartal, the correct site is http://valveaudio.tripod.com/

Thank you very much by correction.

Hi, Chacal,

The valveaudio.tripod.com is a free service website (tripod based), I made it long-long time ago.
The files in .pdf (protel format) are not schematics, they are PCB drawings. Unfortunately, I don't have any schematic/documentations for those PCBs. The schematics must be reverse-drawn from the PCB itself.

Yes, like Mr. Hansen said, you can view these files with protel 2.7 or Protel DXP / Altium, they have import option for older protel files. This DXP is actually nice, it is a complete PCB/Schematic drawing/viewer, simulator with quite complete component model library from various manufacturer

Hi, Jacco, have you check your email?
