I can't expand that schematic to read it ?

Also, can we get some info on what this is as I have no idea and couldn't find anything with a search.
Thanks.

As inferred, there were five models and I can't recall what they did, except one had a loop. I believe they were all 'clean' gain/buffer devices and used two 9V batteries. Those charge-pump chips weren't out til years later. They were all in the same box. As far as I could tell, they were custom aluminum castings.

...I think I remembered the numbering wrong. The one I've posted is a BUF I.
