In tracing this thru the BAMA site I reached a downloadable 1 meg file which turned out to be just a high resolution image of the cover of the manual. Is the useful information about the unit stored elsewhere under a different filespec ?? What you discovered was not a high resolution image of the cover of the manual, but rather a 38 page manual in djvu format. Do you have the djvu plug-in installed in your browser? If so, the control panel just above the "cover" will allow you to page through the manual. Hope this helps. Ken K4XL Out of curiosity, why djvu instead of pdf? Fair question. BAMA is a voluntary, cooperative effort. If someone submits a bunch of gif, jpg, png or other format, individual page images, I am happy to put it into pdf format. However, if someone submits a manual in djvu format, that is the way it goes onto the server. A careful reading of the BAMA site will reveal that I am very unhappy with djvu because of support issues and encourage those who contribute manuals to use pdf or raw image files. Still, there are those who prefer djvu because of the phenomenal compression that it is capable of. If they send me a manual that fits the BAMA mission, I'm certainly not going to refuse it because it is in djvu format. BAMA continues to grow because folks are willing to go to the trouble to scan and share their manuals. I'm not about to do anything to discourage that! 8*) Ken K4XL *** BoatAnchor Manual Archive *** On the web at http://bama.sbc.edu and http://bama.edebris.com FTP site info: bama.sbc.edu login: anonymous p/w: youremailadr Thanks! :-) -- Gregg "t3h g33k" http://geek.scorpiorising.ca *Ratings are for transistors, tubes have guidelines* |
