Is there any way to get a schematic for the XPR .. and even the XPRa ?
thanks all...

Getting schematics is tricky. Some, or maybe all of the IP is owned by Jim Dunlop. There are some authorized Rockman repair technicians. David "SG" Ferringer is the most obvious. I don't know if he would take on the XPR/XPRa systems. The last time I heard of a XPR being repaired, I believe Bob Cedro from Jim Dunlop did the work.

Thanks for the reply. I really didn't dig further than a guugul search and got these
I guess I am used to finding schematics for all number of amps and just don't consider the IP aspect of things.

Here are some more shots, the only thing I have found just from looking was the transistor at Q701 was leaning against the resistor next to it, R741 I think it says ?
