Default Drake R7 repair

I have one of these units in for repair. The person that I am repairing it
for is either too cheap to pay somebody for the schematic or too lazy to
follow up...............anyway, what I need is a scan of the schematic of
the power supply board. This is the later iteration that uses the TDA2002
audio amp chip as the oscillator vs the multivibrator circuit that is used
in the older iteration of the power supply. This fellow keeps sending me
scans of small sections of the power supply. He is getting these small scans
from somebody on the Drake mailing list. The person on the list is telling
him that the schematic is too large to scan. I will be glad to pay somebody
if they would be able to copy/reduct the size of the schematic so that it
can be scanned on a flatbed scanner.
If anybody can help me, I will be glad to pay you for a scan, and I will
then charge the owner of the receiver in turn. The problem is that the +24V
rail for the VCO tuning voltage is missing.
Thanks!

Pete
