The 03 is the year and the 10 may be the month of the year. The D1 is the revision code. The "C" version was before maybe 2000 so you won't see those unless they are used as replacements and the "E" revision wasn't used until late 2004. -Arthur _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
