[1000mp] FT-1000D Production 1990 or 2000?

Wed, 25 Dec 2002 22:11:38 -0700

Serial No: 0 N 250 078

The first number is year the radio was actually made (0=2000)
The N is month made starting with January as C (N=December)
The 250 is batch number (250=Batch 25)
The 078 is serial number in that batch (078=78)

Thus the HARDWARE, not the mods made after manufacture,
for this FT-1000MP was manufactured in December 1997 and is
serial number 78 in batch 25.

All Yaesu equipment follows this method of serial numbering.

Milt, N5IA
