Seems to me that there is (was?) also a Russian site that has Heathkit manuals.
I really do not see how that bozo who bought the Heath copyrights can enforce anything.  The manuals were in public domainor otherwise freely available for at least 20 years; and many of the copyrights he "bought" were expired anyway.

I agree.

I have had zero problems with mods.dk, and he often has stuff you can'f find 
anywhere else. I really appreciate his service. I've donated a bit and 
download what I need, when I find it there.

I've never gotten anything from him that was unsolicited.

In point of fact, yahoo's damned DMARC software tags as S*P*A*M lots of 
things which are NOT (false positives), and my own e-mail "reader", 
Pegasus, has an excellent "learning" filter for those that get through, so I 
don't worry about it much.

You didn't...at least you weren't the first one....**I** was! Oops. :-(
