Fairchild 539 manual?

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

I just acquired a Fairchild 539G in need of restoration, does anyone know where I could get a manual for it or a set of schematics?

Thanks,

Mark

Thanks - that's interesting reading even though I don't own the machine. Seems it was quite a good one it it's day.

Thank You
Now I'm going to push my luck and ask, Does anyone have a schematic for the 295 amp that went with the Fairchild 539G?
