I concur. That is a great write-up on the 3586.
However, note that there are at least three revisions of that document
(version 2.0, 2004, version 2.1, 2007 and 2.2, 2007). Version 2.1 (at
least in the copy that I have) is missing the front panel figures in
section 4 and the schematic figures in Appendix C. The copy on the KO4BB
website is revision 2.2, which has the figures in section 4 but is
missing the schematic figures in Appendix C.

A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR USING THE HP 3586A/B/C SELECTIVE LEVEL METER
Expanded Version, (Version 2.2), September 2007

The HP 3586 family of Selective Level Meters was designed for the measurement
of low power or voltage levels on telephone lines carrying multiplexed single
side band radio frequency signals along with lower frequency audio signals.
It’s designed to test and troubleshoot parameters commonly found on these
lines. This instrument is a very sensitive, selective and accurately calibrated
receiver that’s also capable of outputting a very low distortion signal of 0dBm
at exactly the frequency it’s tuned to.
