[Yaesu] ft-1000d

[paul glassman]

ooppsss  my mistake. there is no letter "d" in the
serial number on mine. on the serial number patch the
top says FT1000D and the serial number begins with a
"0". so....  in the year 2000, yaesu added the title
"FT1000d" to the serial number patch. all previous
years, there was no indication of "d" other than to
open the rig and see the factory installed filters and
the bpfo. if you see a ft1000D and the serial number
starts with "0" and there is no "ft1000D" indication,
then you have a 1990.
