If there were enough revisions to get to "O" in the alphabet (probably never
happened), would "O" be skipped? --Mike, WV2ZOW

Jim W7RY,

The last character is a 0 (zero). I worked at Motorola for 19 years. Wrote
manuals for Base Station Special Products (SPs). But the fact is it means
Original. That made the numerical search for the part number work in the
computer system. "0" (Zero) sorts ahead of "A". Otherwise the part numbers
for the manuals wouldn't sort correctly.
