Gang,

Thank you to everyone who weighed in on this.  I must say I'm amazed at 
how many of these are in captivity.  I'll host any documents that show 
up on my site, and maybe even do some scanning if the Jersey Boys come 
through with paper.

I made some progress on my set.  See: 
http://www.ar88.net/pix/R-1451A/Troubleshooting%20A1%20-%20RF%20Head.png

So I'm really in need of, at least, the RF No. 1 board schematic. Has 
anyone been inside one of these.  I'm assuming step one is to disconnect 
the shaft coupler between the front panel and the band switch.  Then get 
the module out of the radio, pull the shaft, and extract the board.  
(There's a tool for that included.)

VY 73,
Al
