butchy not replying to my emails either

have not heard from him in the last 6months

i sent butchy that manual and it is a big file

but it is very good 

the worst thing they did was provide a dc hi voltage for the back light it works but with dc instead of ac the life of an efoil is halfed

i changed mine for a 5v invertor to ac voltage and it lasts a lot longer

  Hi Steve,

  I sent Tony the FZ-1 Service Manual after I crunched it down a bit. Buchty never replied to him. The manual I got from Buchty was 58mb! I got it down to 8mb without losing a lot of quality. Trying to read the schematics with my older eyes it's important to be able to zoom 400%.

  There is an output muting relay but it looks like it only goes to the Mix output. The individual outputs and headphone output are not muted. I never realized how complex the FZ's circuitry is until I looked at this schematic. I could spend years poking around in one of these. Anybody have a dead one??? 

  Yeah I know I'm sick.... Fran
