vintage scanner owners manual needed

[sparkytech]

I recently received an old Radio Shack scanner - it's a Realistic Pro-53 (model 20-122). Just for kicks, I'd like to get it working. It's 8 channel, crystal controlled. Any info. on it or where I can get the owners manual? Thanks, sparkytech.

Someone may have the link handy. I used to have it until I had a hard drive crash. Anyway, there is (or was at one time) a place that had a lot of old service and owners manuals on line. Something like servicedocs.com (try a google search for something like that).

I will not guarantee they will have it, but I've found stranger things on the internet.

You might also try the RS web site and see if they might have the manual on line in their support page. You've got all the info you need (model number and catalog number).
