[GreenKeys] Looking for TM-11-6625-261-12

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

TM 11-2684 covers TS-382/U and TS-312/FSM-1.  Differences between the two 
being that the former is portable (it has a cabinet) and the latter is rack 
mount.  They are both smaller and have fewer tubes than TS-382A/U and later.  
And they have no meters.

TM 11-2684A covers TS-382A/U.  Changes (which I don't appear to have) add 
coverage of TS-382B, D, E and F/U.  TM 11-6625-261-12 and -35 cover the A 
through F (less C).

About all that TS-382/U has in common with the others is that they are all 
AC line operated vacuum tube based audio signal generators.  Beyond that, 
the manual on TS-382/U would probably be worse than nothing for working on 
TS-382A/U or later.  

However, there are only relatively minor differences from TS-382A/U through 
F/U.  The basic circuit remained almost the same.  V107 (6SQ7) became 6SL7 
(with both triodes paralled).  Markings on step attenuator switch changed 
from all X decimal to mix of X10^n and X decimal.  Several resistor values 
changed.  And the frequency range of the power transformer changed.  If I 
recall correctly (the late manual doesn't say or show), the meter cases changed, 
too.  But that would matter only if you needed a replacement and wanted it 
to match the original cosmetically.

Al, if the manual on BAMA and/or the one Roy already had is the one on 
TS-382A/U, I can give you the changes to make it cover the D.
