Thanks, I'll get them up as soon as I can.

I sort of agree with Patrice, at least in one way, *IF* the rights to them
are still owned by someone we should contact them first and obtain
permission before putting them up.
But I do think they *should* go up, I'm afraid I don't agree with people
charging LOTS of money for schematics, and, as has been said, often very
poor quality ones.
At the end of the day, the only people who are going to want simmons
schematics are owners with broken simmons gear, if they feel they have to
pay silly money to get their gear mended, they may decide not to, and just
throw it in the bin. Its not like someone is going to re-manufacture them,
because to build a new SDX would be too costly these days.

But I also don't want them to be re-sold, which is why I put a page on the
end of every PDF saying that it was downloaded from simmons.synth.net and
shouldn't be re-sold.

Just my thoughts.

Paul
