[Premium-Rx] Manual for Teletron [Pfitzner] TE712B needed

[John Graham 02]

Thanks Karl-Arne; I shall take a look at that.

BTW, the seller (Schrotthandel Schmittberger) tells me they have another 8 receivers in the same condition (not listed on their website) and that the price is now ?100.

You can try this:

It appears that the guy behind this site has extensive knowledge about 
this receiver.

?rende: [Premium-Rx] Manual for Teletron [Pfitzner] TE712B needed

I recently acquired two "demilitarisiert" Teletron TE712B receivers 
cheaply [EUR120 each] from a German dealer. They had very battered 
front panels but were otherwise complete.
There were enough undamaged parts to rebuild one front panel (after 
hammering it flat!) with original parts and I was able to get the first 
receiver working without too much difficulty. Fortunately, the 
displays, which include an HP calculator-style strip of 14 lensed LEDS, 
were undamaged because they are mounted on solid wire "stalks" that 
simply bent. I replaced the broken meter faces with curved plastic sawn 
from a pill-box.

For the other receiver, I had to replace most of the pots and switches 
and build my own keypad from single Cherry keys, and that front panel 
now works, too.
However, I am struggling to get much further because there is a fault 
with the synthesiser and I do not have any circuit diagrams. [I have 
built my own extender cards and cables].

Can anyone provide a source for the TE712B Service Manual or at least 
the schematics? The remote control format would be good, too.
A manual was listed by Algra Funkarchiv, but they do not reply to 
mails and I'm not sure they are still in business [I think the 
proprietor has been ill]. 

I seem to recall someone offering a pdf version of the manual on this 
forum a few years ago.

Any info gratefully received!

John Graham
