RE: 1950s vintage Heathkit manual

["Al Geist" <al -at- geistarts -dot- com>]

Heathkit made great stereo equipment. I had a Heathkit stereo and it lasted
more than 10 years. I gave it to my brother when I went to Japan during my
Navy years.

Subject: 1950s vintage Heathkit manual

Here is a set of photos of an old Heathkit assembly manual from the 1950s
(or possibly the 1960s). Interesting to see how they did it back when a tech
writer was a tech writer. Heathkit was a hobbyist company that made kits for
assembling various electronic equipment. This one is for an vacuum tube AC
voltmeter.

Here's the article this came from, where the guy uses the instructions to
build the voltmeter.
