Mike, N1EVH posted this information to the list: ----- Yaesu's serial number scheme is as follows... 1st digit is the year it was made. 2nd digit is the month it was made 3rd and 4th digits are the lot number 5th thru 8th digits is the unit number in that lot. Now with the month... they start with the letter "C". So the months would be... C - January I - July D - February J - August E - March K - September F - April L - October G - May M - November H - June N - December ------ I hope that helps.

开云体育The 1 indicates the fourth digit of the serial number, so 2001, 2011, or 2021 are the possibilities.The FT-817 was released about 2000. ?The FT-817nd was released in 2004. The FT-818 was released in 2018. So your radio was apparently built in 2011. Let me know if I can Google anything else for you...

Hi A 817ND with first digit a 1 would be 2011 an original 817 with a 1 would be 2001. I have one of the latter. Marty kd8bj
