Product was very good. Received quickly and complete
 ;
The Sony AV-3600 service manual was what I needed for the repair of this unit
Thanks for the good service

I purchased a copy of my old JVC VCR Service manual from Owner-Manuals.com
The copy was complete and valuable to me.
I was able to fix my VCR - it had a bad belt.
I am glad I found Owner-Manuals.com
Great Price. Thanks

Great service! I got manual to my sony receiver for very reasonoble price.

Good service, well organized. Cheap, and the service manual was as expected. A valuable service for those of us wanting to keep the old junk going!
Philips Semiconductors
Two-tone Linearity in a 900 MHz Silicon Bipolar Class AB Ampli�er
4 CONCLUSION
Application Note AN98026
Using the typical characteristics of a silicon bipolar transistor in the class AB mode, it is possible to improve IMD for medium and high output power levels by adding a series resistor in the base bias network. This simple and reliable method allows the power amplifier to be operated in the class AB mode, which increases amplifier and overall system efficiency considerably. The presented class AB amplifier shows an IMD performance of better then �32 dBc over a 40 dB dynamic range up to 10 W PEP. This performance makes it possible to use the amplifier in a feedforward system, meeting a �60 dBc IMD requirement. The trade-off is a slight increase in gain compression over the total dynamic range. A good selection of Icq and the series resistor value will give a usable compromise. 5 REFERENCES
