Hi:
I'm trying to learn more about the HP Z3805A GPSDO.
http://www.prc68.com/I/Z3805A.html
It has an OCXO that I haven't seen before with a paper sticker with it's
p/n: 3505A09422
The "A" normally means made in America.
Does anyone know more about it?
As others have said, it's a 18011, and you are looking at the serial
number.
IIRC, It was made in late 1995 (1960+35). The 05 is the 5th week of HP's
Fiscal year that begins Nov 1 (still today), which I think puts the
date of manufacture between Nov 29th and Dec 6th 1995.
It's also a darned fine bit of kit :)
(Sorry, I know I'm sad and bad, I just couldn't resist :)]
Iain (who can probably still remember what he was doing that Nov 1
at HP!)
