Determining the Date of Manufacture of HP Instruments
revised May 24, 2006

I receive many inquiries about how to determing the date of manufacture of a particular HP instrument.  So on this section of the web site I will offer information that may help.  I am also asking people who visit this site and have a vintage instrument to send me information as described on the pages.  This information will be put into a database and eventually I will be able to post a serial number guide to the date of manufacture.
