Hi guys

I downloaded schematics for my Philco 41-250 form a website who had them for free. (the price was right).
Anyway they leave a little to be desired regarding quality (readability). Is it safe to assume if I purchase schematics online they will be of better quality and include a parts list?

Yes, that's where I got them. I've got many from there with no issues.
The one i need now is shrunk pretty bad and blowing it up distorts it a lot.

From my site yes, and a lot more comprehensive too. Schematic enlargement(s), production change notes, if any, etc.

See the Schematic Info page on my site and read the details there on ordering.
