its a pdf thats 9meg or just over is size .

8mg limit is tiny ?

the schematics are massive sheets so have to be photographed rather than scanned so ive used a 12 mpixel camera so they can be enlarged and read clearly and easily as they are over 30 years old

OK - I've upped it to 20 MiB.

I may see if I can do something to reduce your file sizes (without losing too much quality) after you've uploaded them. I'm mindful that some of our members are still on dial up.

Hi Richard,

Thanks for uploading the schematics. I'm sure sooner or later somebody's going to find them very useful.
Just a suggestion - if it is possible (by folding perhaps) to scan those sheets bit by bit, we could produce a much clearer copy at a much smaller file size. I could easily stitch the pieces back together in Photoshop. It's hard to do this working from photos because of lower resolution, lens distortions, perspective, uneven lighting, etc.

I wonder if broadband has reached our collector friend in Ontario yet? !!UHOH!!
