Are there any Color Classic II schematics out there?

I know it's a long shot but my Google-fu is weak and not turning up anything.
Does anyone out there have CC II schematics? I just got a battery bombed LB and they would help me repairing it.

Thanks,
C

Never mind.
I soaked the board overnight and it looks like the circuit parts I need to replace are the same as the Color Classic parts.
Next step is to tone put the board to prove they are the same, and to look for trace rot.

Those CC II / 550 boards are tricky to troubleshoot. There's a Bomarc schematic for the LC III, I may be wrong but I think the CC II is a very similar design to the LC III, so the schematic might be helpful.

The damage is around the EGRET chip (which is missing), so I'm thinking the Color Classic configuration is similar as it uses the same parts. I need to inspect the board for trace rot and order capacitors next, but looks pretty good as far as battery damage goes.
