I purchased the unit from a private party and the original owners manual was not available. Having the ability to download it was extremely helpful and clarified operating the equipment immensely. This is a complicated unit and without the manual I would not have been able to maximize it's potential. Thank you.
Being a user of older radios of many kinds, preferring them over more modern rigs, this manual was invaluable in the programming of my two. I now know for certain what the assorted buttons functions are, and am very grateful to have found this excellent site. Many thanks for your assistance, Tony.
5 star quality on these downloadable manuals. Easy to read and all the information is there. A must when doing a custom install or needing to service your precious old school electronics.

3. Push the film cartridge down into the FILM CHAMBER (15) until it fits securely into place. Do not force it into the film chamber.
4. Close the film door and check the FILM WINDOW (17) (you should see the film information through the window). When you close the safety-interlocked film door and after you start to advance the film, you cannot open the film door until the film is completely rewound into the film cartridge.
