[Test-Equipment] late HP 428B current probe manual

[D. Robbins]

Greetings, An HPAgilent employee has been given the task to archive old 
manuals on their site to boost their image again and has contacted the 
Yahoo HP group and Yahoo manuals group to aid him in getting a top 500 (to 
start) manuals  and to help him find them since his company no longer has 
copies or are misplace. If you have one on the list he would like a copy, 
if no PDF is available then he may need your copy mailed to him. Some 
former Hp  employees have also posted to tell him to look in such and such 
cupboard at a certain building and he will find a whole stash of oldie but 
goodies. So the search is on and Agilent  has realized that places like 
BAMA only serve to nurture their customers  respect  for their 
company.  Those that can't afford new now , will be wooed to the HP way 
when their budget allows, or when those that can afford  are influenced by 
our opinions. Knowing that support  for their products  will continue goes 
a long way. Agilent even has listing right now of 14 different 
merchants  that may have a discontinue manual, BAMA  is number 4 on the list.
