PMEL Training Documentation

[beilof]

I was wondering if anyone had a link or documentation for the original PMEL Electronics course. I went through the course in 1983. I have spent most of my career in Phys/Dim and recently got a new job where my primary area is Electronics calibration (K1 & K8). I still have my advanced Phys/Dim course material and the NAV QAL 9, but I do not have any of the original PMEL course documentation. Can anyone help with that or direct me to a place online where I can again learn to understand electronics and read schematics. Thanks

Here's the only online I know of, hopefully others know of more

I have all of the original course material circa 1979. It's a huge pile of paper, though, and I don't have the time or resources to scan it all. I think you may want something more contemporary, anyway.

Ha! Ha! I recently came across PMEL training material (hard copy) from 1972! All that vacuum tube theory and use of the K3 Pot (L&N 7553 Universal Potentiometer) should come in quite handy now. (How many know what I'm talking about?)

Guilty.

I just wanted to say thanks for everyone who responded and emailed me. I have received a lot of information I can put to good use. Thanks!

Sold mine for beer money..... how else can an E-3 afford to drink so much???

sold them?? Who would buy them??

Some weird guy, was wearing man jammers.... just kidding.

And I really did not sell them. I think my wife threw them out. Things filled up a GP Paper box! The AF sure went through some paper printing those babies.....

hi
i need these courses: -spectrum analyser, signal generator and power meter
- solid state and its applications
thank you

You might try finding T.O. 31-1-141-1  if covers, Basic Electronics Technology and Testing Practices – General Testing. Information and Safety Precautions, back in the day it was a good reference material.

thank you for the information
can you send me an electronic copy of TO 31-1-141-1, Basic Electronics Technology and Testing Practices – General Testing
Information and Safety Precautions.

I was in PMEL in the mid 60's at Castle AFB and Hickam AFB.  I then made the mistake of going into computer programming.  To my ever regret, PMEL was closed so I couldn't get back into it.  I am retired now (mid 70's) but had a very extensive and rewarding career path keeping up with electronics - clinical engineering (BIOMED), ham radio, tube radio restoration, and lots of interesting hobbies,  (I still have my original AFM 101-8).  I would like to review and update my PMEL knowledge for my own sake since I now have the time.  Can anyone direct me to a source for any PMEL study material including even used AFMETCAL course material - unclassified of course?   PS - I do remember the K3 POT, and transporting standard cells in ones lap coming back from NBS (in Boulder) and having to let them settle awhile before using in the voltage calibrator.
