This service manual was determinant to enable to fix my Alpine Amplifier. I am pleased with my purchase. For a 5 star rating I would like to see a higher resolution scan of the printed circuit board lay-out because the gray scale grafics was dificult to see. Also some schematic diagrams were scanned at a slight angle. Never the less, it had all information I needed to troubleshoot and service my equipment.
Complete manual, the good quality of reproduction allows enlarged print-out of the schematic diagram in the size it probably had in the original print edition and which is necessary for practical use.
This Service Manual was exactly what I needed to repair my Philips TV. The purchase was convenient and I received the manual at the same day I paid for it.

GND Figure 1 This circuit generates the DC tuning voltage BT for selecting a channel with a TU pulse being output from IC700. IC500 has 3 circuits for converting pulses to voltages; it selects one of VHF-L, VHF-H, or UHF, and causes the tuning voltage to be output from the OUT terminal (pin 12). Figure 2 and Table 1 show the conditions for selection. IC500 Inputs
