Regarding schematics, you folks are making this issue much to complex.
Send an E-Mail to Tech Support at Elecraft, let them know you need schematics for XXXXX model and you will get an E-Mail back with a full set of clean schematics. What's the big deal? !!!
I have schematics for my K3S, my P3, my KPA500, and KAT500. They are nicely printed and in my 3 ring binder for all of my Elecraft equipment.
