Or is the Rb resonance frequency, which is generally quoted as above,
actually rounded to be an integer number of Hz for convenience?
Perhaps a set of environmental conditions need to be specified as

Well, for it to have more significant

A definition doesn't imply it has to be an integer. An
inch, for example, is defined to be 25.4 mm.

Hi,
I have placed raw 200DPI 8bit GIFs of the HP103AR manual on my website.
There's no index file; the scans are at:
