Default WTD: Schematic "ASTRONAUT 8" receiver

This was a portable, transistorized, multi-band receiver sold under the
Realistic brand by Radio Shack circa 1965 to 72 approximately. The
model number is 12-751B on this unit. Alternatively, anyone who's
worked on one for an AGC problem, contact me if you'd like.

Thanks

IIRC, most all RS electronics sold back then had the schematic
glued somewhere on the inside of the outer cover(s). Have you
opened it up yet? You may have it already.

Thanks for your reply Jonesy.....I just took a look (have it apart on my
bench) and there is no diagram inside - Good idea though; remember when
many radio's (and indeed other electrical equipment of all kinds) had
the diagram with them in the manner you described - Thats when
manufacturers were proud of their products

I can remember some palm-sized RS gadget (a WX Rcvr perhaps...) that
had it's schematic glued to the inside of the 9V battery cover!
It took a microscope to read it -- but, it was clear and complete.
