Looking for the schematic for my fathers Drake SW2 shortwave receiver that needs repairs. The schematic is not in the operators manual and Drake states that they no longer support the radio. Some copies of the schematic were sold by Drake which stopped sometime in 2012 because they were bought out, downsized, moved and many workers were let go. If anyone that was lucky enough to get a copy of the schematic please contact me. A copy, a photo or a scan would be great. Any help would be appreciated.

I am pretty sure there is a full manual with schematics in BAMA. I recently
was given an SB-2 with sensitivity issues and saw the SW-2 manual while
looking for the SB-2 one in BAMA.

The SW2 should not be too hard to work on; it is a big step up from an AA5
but there isn't anything too weird about it.
