Obtaining Service Data

[Paul Stenning]

Before posting your service data request here, you may want to try these other sources:

On my website at http://www.vintage-radio.com I offer service data by email for £2.50 per set (pay online by PayPal) or on three CD-ROMs each containing over 1000 service sheets for £15 each.

Savoy Hill Publications have probably the largest collection of service data in the UK, and can supply a comprehensive service data pack for most sets for around £12. This business was previously owned and run by Tudor Gwilliam-Rees, but has now been sold. The new owners are:

Paul & Alex Ollivier,
Fir View, 7 Rabys Row, Scorrier, Redruth, Cornwall, TR16 5AW.
Phone and Fax: 01209 820771
Email: sales@savoy-hill.co.uk

There are a selection of manuals and schematics for test equipment on Jon Evans site at http://www.TheValvePage.com. Jon also sells a CD-ROM of television service data for £15.

If you require data for American radios, there is a large amount available for free download at http://www.nostalgiaair.org/, in the " Riders Online " and " Online Manuals " sections.

For online valve (tube) data try http://frank.pocnet.net/index.html. You can also download a Windows based valve data program from http://duncanamps.com/.

Other suggestions for reliable sources of service data are always welcomed.

Would recommend that anyone into doing up old Radios should purchase the 3 CD-Roms of Service Data that Paul Stenning produces. Best money I have ever spent, extremely good value. The Valve Data CD-Rom is also amazing value.

Another good boat anchor link is http://bama.sbc.edu/

Although you might be better off using an FTP client to access the BAMA site.

Another excellent source of schematics, service data, and component layout drawings. Unfortunately mostly USA
manufacturers.
