This unit did come from up here interesting if it was the same one.  No manual was with it but sadly often they get lost in an estate cleanout.  When I get the manual I'll try to scan or copy it before it goes off with the radio.   From the replies, looks like, in our small world, Robert is the only one who has one.  and he has the PS as well.
