Whoever made the combined file would be the one to ask, I just looked at my
page 9 and its fine. They all exist as .jpg's here on my drive. Or maybe
those aren't my scans? ISTR I sent them to someone as .jpg's, but
CRS/oldtimers has struck again and I don't remember who.

Please bear in mind that Tony was pretty paranoid about exactly this sort of
thing, and there are mistakes on every page that would prevent the operation
of a device made from those drawings. So IF you find a difference between
the drawings and the real thing, you'd best put on your engineering design
hat and figure out which is the correct drawing, what you see in the copper &
chips in front of you, or whats on the drawing, keeping in mind that the
copper and chips _did_ work.
