"The Manual Man" is a good source for manuals.  Very high quality and you won't be disappointed.  His prices are very reasonable.  Its likely that you will get a discount coupon to be used on your next manual order.

I found the schematic on my hard drive that I had labeled "Scout 40A Schematic" and uploaded it here:

Check the tube compliment to make sure it's correct..

If you do want a manual, here is the one Pete referred to.  $14.00 sounds fair.

Tnx Guy's!!!
Think I'll get the manual as this set has been modified some. Has some sort of ptt circuit and the 6V6 has been replaced with a 6AG7 and the 5U4 with a 5V4. Overall it's in pretty good shape with a little bit of yellowing from rust. Should make a nice little distraction from life.
