That would've been me.  I still think you're going to be ok.  There's
a Y group out there (TekScopes) populated by quite a few former Tek
folks.  It's a great resource, and  very helpful.  There's
a copy of the USAF TO on the edebris bama mirror.  Lots of good
stuff in there.  Once you have it in hand, feel free to yell if you
have Q's.
