Consider me chastised.  I assumed from conversations I had read on various
BBS that C&T were difficult to talk to.  Everybody talked about a 'voice
mail system from hell', etc.

But surprise!  I called them, was handed over to a distributor, and within
10 minutes they offered to send me the manual, for free.

Moral: try the conventional channels, even if the so called experts have
       failed that way...
