http://hamradio.online.ru/ is an interesting site, with lots of archives of 
schematics and manuals as both ZIPs and DJVUs; there is a Russian/English 
translation engine available there to view the site, but if you try to 
right-click and save a file through the translator, it looks like you will 
link to the translator rather than the ZIP file.  Bookmark the site before 
you start the translator if you're not a student of Russian, so you can 
jump back and forth between two windows and see where you are going; it's 
sort of like driving by the committee system in driving rain, when the 
driver's windshield wiper is shot, but the passenger's works.  The 
translator is still kind of rough (some _really_ confusing literal 
translations, like many machine translators; _Enterprise_ it ain't), but it 
may be enough to navigate by.

http://hamradio.online.ru/ftp/sch_ft530.zip is 2.1MB, maybe just a 
schematic.  When I tried the .../tp2/ link for the other fellow's ft707 
manual, it was 404.  Just going to http://hamradio.online.ru/ftp gives you 
an FTP display of the directory, where you can at least see the filenames 
as zips and djvu's etc, without the Cyrillic text.  Also .../ftp2 (we lost 
an 'f' above?), and (per K1MIJ's explorations) 
http://hamradio.online.ru/sch_eng.html which gives us an index page in 
(mostly) English.

Oh - and certainly check over at http://www.mods.dk under Yaesu, and on the 
left, pick _Manuals_ (my Netscape just urped on the third window it had 
open, hang on...)   Got it going again;... there's a schematic there, and a 
manual (5,961KB) but it's in German - if that helps.    All the mods 
(mostly re-iterating how to open up transmit and receive frequencies 
outside the ham bands - legal for MARS or CAP use) can be had in one file, 
of 17Kbytes of text, including AM reception, useful for the aircraft VHF band.

Good Hunting, and a Happy New Year to you!
