HH Scott LK-60B Manual Scan -- Where to Upload?

I got an HH Scott LK-60B manual recently, found some time to scan this monster and clean it up a bit in photoshop. From what I can tell, it's the same as the LK-60, down to the schematic, page numbers, and wire colouring. The only real difference I can tell is the face plate for the LK-60B actually says "vol" and "loud". On the LK-60 it just has a "V" and "L". The manual has the correction for the 1 1/2 drift on the frequency meter (which was penciled in from the previous scans available).

Here is a link to it, I will keep it available as long as I own the site: http://dk.toastednet.org/HH_Scott/Manual/hh_scott_lk60b_manual.pdf. I also have high quality, 300 DPI, PNG scans available. This is over 600MB. I am planning to zip up the PNGs and upload this separately in case anyone wants this.

My question, however, is where else can I upload this? I remember there were some sites out there that took submissions for service manuals and various literature but I can't recall them offhand and a quick search of "antique radio manuals" only pulled up audiokarma and a few other pages.

I also have an LK-60 (non-B) manual arriving shortly. I will cross-check the manual and make sure nothing else is different. If there is differences, I will scan this manual as well.

I got the LK-60 (non-B) manual and there are two changes compared to the original circuit:

* The 1000/65 can may be replaced by a 2000/75. The LK-60B mentions this in the manual with the asterisk. However, in the LK-60 there was a typed letter stapled to the page mentioning it may be different and the polarity.
* The mylar caps by the speaker outputs have been upgraded from 200V to 250V. I'm guessing it was an error on their part with compensating for outside of the US. The LK-60 manual calls them tubular capacitors, but the LK-60B calls them mylar.

Besides the faceplate mentioning LK-60B on the front and saying "VOL/COMP" instead of "V/L" for the loudness switch the rest of it is the same. Down to the wiring colours, the schematic (same revision and date), alignment instructions, and even the specs. Part numbers are exactly the same, with the exception of the mylar cap mentioned above. You can also see in the LK-60B manual I posted it mentions that dc is not "DC" but "dc" in the glossary (and a few other terms). The LK-60 manual does not mention this.

Beyond that, any regular LK-60 users out there can safely use this manual with no issues.
