TM Score! TM9-1802A

Postby pfarber » Tue May 01, 2012 1:17 am

Finding TMs is feast or famine.

I posted on multiple boards and asked several vendors that I am looking for a TM9-1802A "Ordnance maintenance / Power Plant For 2 1/2 Ton Amphibian Truck, 6X6, ( GMC DUKW-353 ) and 2 1/2 Ton Truck, 6X6 ( GMC )" And for 4 months NOTHING.

Within the last 3 weeks I was able to find a PDF version and TWO print TMs on ebay.

Not a huge fan of full color scans in PDFs... the bright light allows the back of the page to bleed through.

I also find it HILARIOUS that PDF sellers stamp copyright all over them... the book is public domain and scanning it conveys absolutely no copyright whatsoever. That's black letter law. I have absolutely no problem with an innocuous watermark of the PDFs creator, store etc (I do that with the TMs I scan... but I don't claim copyright.... that's just crazy talk).

We'll see about removing those pesky copyright notices :)

Provide a copy to deadline (tm9-801.com). He has access to my NAS (Network Area Server) and can upload them to me.
I can remove the PDF security in a minute or two. Most of the water marks I can remove in short order.
The only ones that take forever are the ones imbeded into .jpg files converted to .pdf.
