Update to: Schematics wanted for Hale Sight-O-Tuner

[Greg T]

OK...I called Inventronics. The woman who answered the phone said they have
nothing at all to do with the Hale SOT. She said I could send it to Richard
Wineberger as he advertises in the Journal as someone who repairs them. So,
I explained that there is nothing wrong with mine but that I just need a new
battery and wanted to find a schematic for it in case I encountered problems
with it in the future. She then proceeded to tell me (with a slight
"attitude" detected in her voice) that I shouldn't really be fooling around
with a device that old anyway (basically bad-mouthing their own product) and
that the new Accu-Tuner was the most accurate instrument around now anyway.
She said that it probably would be the last tuning device I would ever need
to buy...for $1700.00...

Sorry, maam, I don't THINK so...

I was able to find a battery for it. I guess I won't worry about the
schematics.

Thanks to all who have tried to assist.

Best,
Greg
