I don't believe there is actually a 1981 manual for the TR-8. The
manual for an 81 consists of the 1980 manual with the supplement.
As to the service bulletins; we published the important ones
in a past issue of the VTR magazine. I'll check again at home as
to which one.

Yes, that is my (our, Linda, my SO and my) TR-8 in the Newton book.
There's also a couple of detail shots of my TR-250 in the 250 section.
