Thanks for the link.

I tried to go to the BAMA site to download the manual as the poster mentioned but Heathkit is not one of the manufacturers available in the list of options. Am I missing something?

Someone bought some rights to Heathkit and threatened some web sites that had free downloads so some (all?) of the US web sites stopped offering downloads. Some foreign sites are still available.

I have a PDF of the construction manual for the IM-11 which is identical to your VTVM except for the paint job. I have both VTVMs.

If you send your E-mail address I will send it to you.

:lol: That would be the reason that I could only locate the manual in German!

Thanks I will send you my email.
