Discalimer - I have no dog in this hunt - I've sold all 400 of my
Heathkits and all the manuals -

FWIW - According to
http://www.antiqueradios.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=105023 a 2010
letter from Heathkit says the following-
=======================================
We have not sold the copyrights to any Vintage Heathkit Manual. What
we have sold is the exclusive right to reproduce and sell our Vintage
Heathkit Manuals. The specifics of that agreement are confidential. On
our Web Site under Customer Support you will find this link:
If you are looking for authorized copies of Legacy Heathkit Kit
Product Manuals, please contact www.d8apro.com
In essence when this gentleman tells you that he has the exclusive
rights to reproduce and sell Vintage Heathkit Manuals he is correct.
Individuals or organizations that have been reproducing and selling
our copyrighted material without our permission are the ones in
violation of copyright laws.
Regards,
Ernie Wake
