I believe for pre 1962 the copyrights had to have been renewed. All of this was hashed over on the Heathkit Yahoo! users group for those who want to peruse the subject. The new owner admitted a few of the manuals weren't copyrighted (AT-1, etc.) but no definitive list was given. FWIW. Pete |

Actually it was a pretty Mickey Mouse thing. The copyright on Mickey was expiring so Walt Disney Productions got the law changed. Dave |
