Scott 399 Receiver Schematics?

wrenchone · 2nd August 2008, 04:55 AM

I have a colleague at work who has a Scott 399 receiver in pretty clean condition that he inherited from his grandmother. I've been egging him on to do a refurb so he can drag it to Burning Amp this year, but he won't get off the pot unless he has a schematic. Does any one out there have a service manual or know of a source? Searches haven't worked too well so far. I'd just dig in and go for it ( at least on the audio side), but he is a relative newbie and wants some docs...

On a side note, we've popped the hood and had a look inside, and the amount of hand work that went into this receiver is rather daunting. Nobody would want to pay for it these days.

Also, if there is anyone in the San Francisco Bay area that could tweak up and align the RF side of the receiver, It'd be nice to know.

Sams folder 526-8 covers it - I don't have that one, but you can try Walt at infotronix.us or Bob at findatube.com.

Sams is still selling Photofacts both in paper and electronic form, and I was able to locate the 526-8 lickety-split. Thanks.
