Thanks to exidyboy for providing quality raw 600dpi scans of this manual.  Pages were re-sized, cut, cleaned and de-skewed before converting to a normal searchable PDF of 44 pages long.

The manual was produced by Macrotronics Inc., California and Copyright 1979 to Ronald Lodewyck. From the manual :

THE S-80 CONVERTS YOUR EXIDY SORCERER MICROCOMPUTER INTO A
STATE—OF-THE-ART HAM COMPUTER SYSTEM. WHAT IS ESPECIALLY
EXCITING IS THAT YOU NOW HAYE A POWERFUL, GENERAL PURPOSE
COMPUTER WHICH, AMONG MANY OTHER THINGS, WILL ALSO GIVE YOU
ALL-MODE HAM CAPABILITIES.

THE S-80 SYSTEM WILL RUN ON ANY EXIDY SORCERER WITH BASIC PACK
AND 16K (OR MORE) RAM. TO OBTAIN SATISFACTORY RESULTS ON
RECEIVING, IT IS ASSUMED THAT YOU HAVE EITHER A HF RECEIVER
COVERING THE AMATEUR FREQUENCIES OR A VHF-FM RECEIVER.
