Jim (and Greg),

Likely Greg's note on the 117C indicates that is the one in your manual. I 
have never seen the manual for the 350 (I once had a 350C but by then the 
manual detailed the 117X and 117XC).

Anyway, Jim, the email I sent directly to you with the schematic attached 
bounced back. Contact me off the reflector and I will get the manual to you.

73,

-Bill, WA9MXQ
