I am retired and have the experience for such things having done it in the past for our company but I think I lack the depth and even width (OK, length too) of knowledge to do justice to the effort with Elecraft rigs that is needed.  I should say though that it is a lot of work especially when you consider adding new material to an existing document for additional detail or new information.
