Tom,
You do show up in the name/member note (on the left side of each post) as a full member. So that is the first hurdle.
What do you see or what message do you get if you click on the "Technical Manual" link in the string of items starting with "Home" on the left.
That should take you directly to the technical info and you should be able to just browse through that to your hearts content. We need a bit more information to better understand what might be wrong.
