[Milsurplus] AM-3203A/TRC-24 manuals

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Eric,

The manual is TM 11-687 which later became TM 11-5820-287-nn.  A little over 
four years ago, someone talked me into scanning 11-687 for reprinting (maybe 
it was two someones).  Price is $76.70.  Yep, that's a bunch for a book.  But 
it's 692 pages, 57 foldouts and 2 double-folds including Changes 1 through 7.  
And weighs nearly 6 pounds before it goes into a box.  Probably the third 
largest TM I ever scanned (and the other two have no foldouts).

I'm supposed to have (assuming I can locate it) an extra original of the 
later -12 but don't have the -35 which is probably why I did the earlier manual 
for the other guys.
