Its possible to get high quality reprints but the manual is
also on line for nothing.
I am very curious about the AR-77, particularly in comparison
to the Hammarlund HQ-120-X and 129-X. The 120 was contemporary
and seems to have been designed for the same market and price
point. The 120 introduced the patented Hammarlund crystal filter
while the AR-77 has a conventional filter. The AR-77 has an
overcoupled IF but the instructions are very indefinite about how
to tune it. probably a sweeper is in order. I suspect it may be a
very good performer.
