[R-1051] 1051 buyer

I am looking for a Debeg manual for a model 2051 It is very similar to the 1051
in the way that it tunes it it totally SS and you just take you finger and dial
the numbers in oh wait no you don't you push the buttons in for the frequency
you want.
Looks like a veeder root dial but only you push the button over the frequency
you want.
The radio works a little bit but not well.
I can't get am only ssb and the bfo to work but all doesn't work well very poor
receptions.
I need the manual to check the B+ circuit also need to see what regulators they
are using someone has been in it but not to much work just some strange things
that should be fixed.
the controls on the front panel have been broken but I am finding new controls
to install that at this point is not a real problem .
