I saw that. It came with full manual.

I've considered building an input amplifier similar to what is page
14/14 of the schematics sheets. It has a 3 pole Bessel filter, alongside
a JFET amplifier.

They are listed in their web-shop.
Oh, I also have option 01, so I have a nice SC10 OCXO in there. :)
I'll see what a resistor and a patch-cable for fake antenna does to it.
