Rich, I'm hoping this is wrong, but I was talking with another ham who
had lots of Icom stuff and he said that there never was a service
manual for the 471--something about Icom running out of time, etc, and
that the 271 would be a general guide to the 471.

I've collected just about all the service manuals for all my Icom gear
plus that of friends, and I have never seen 471 service stuff.  Ever
since hearing the bad news I've idly looked about.

Perhaps you can prove this wrong in your further searches.  If you do
find it, please let folks know.
