Hello Dave,

Thank you for the kind offer. I have a poor quality two-tone scan of 
that manual. I would appreciate a scan only of page XI from that manual, 
which would be more clear than the one from the attachment that I have.

I mean something that is much better in resolution and sharpness than the copies that circulate over the web. I am looking for the quality scan of the consecutive page #4 from that manual that depicts the C-48 and C-49 control units.
