That came up as I was typing, and I hit send only to find it! Thanks for the heads up though! :) I have gotten careful about static as I own a RigExpert analyzer. :)

Good, my new one is laser printed!! ;)
Dave,
? ?See Erik's previous reply.? Although your tinySA is OEM and has the latest laser markings on the case, only those tinySA's distributed after March of this year will have the new ESD transient protection installed.
? hugen paused production for a short period last month while he and Erik investigated how to improve ESD transient protection in response to some users reporting possible ESD damage to the input attenuator stage. Erik will probably publish the TVS diodes used, and a snippet of how they are installed in the post March production runs, for older tinySA owners that want to install the protection on their devices.
? I appreciate Erik and hugen being pro-active to user concerns and bettering the tinySA with the new warning labels and ESD protection.
