[R-1051] R-1051D info

[Al Parker]

Hi Chris,
    Thanks for the response.
    As I look back on my note to the list, it does look like I'm asking
Cecil's help, but actually I tried to say that his past advice has already
helped me with some of the problems on this rcvr.
    I did a search for online info and came up empty.  I got the B manual
from Andy Moorer's site I think, plus had gotten many schematic prints
from the fellow I got my "plain" one from a yr or so ago.
    The D seems to be a good step up from the plain or B, but I don't care
for not being able to adjust the line output audio from the front panel.
Guess I'll lhave to get used to plugging the spkr into the headfone jacks.
Not having a front panel wiring diagram I don't know if the phomes jack is
600 ohms, or otherwise limited, but it seems to work OK there.
    If I get this D squared away I'll probably part with the plain one,
and use the D with the URT-23.
