HP 107BR Ski Question

PS

List,
In getting documentation together for my HP 107BR I discovered the manuals I was able to aquire were for prefix 333.
My unit prefix is 708.  Does anyone have that prefix schematics or an errata sheet?  Or does the 708 prefix just designate another factory run?
TIA
Perrier

The manual we offer on our WEB site is centered on serial Prefix 512
with change sheets up to serial prefix 708. There are several changes,
between the 512 and 708, different configuration of the A1Y1 , Coax
changes, Powers Supply changes. Many many changes in circuit details
between 333 and 708.

As point of note HP serial number prefixes are Engineering Change Dates
not Production Run Dates. 708 is 8th week of 1967..but a 708 unit could
have been manufactured months or even years after that date

Hi

The oscillators were tested and sorted at the end of the manufacturing line. Everything got
checked for aging. It’s not clear that everything got detail tested for ADEV. The suspicion is that
they did enough ADEV to get the few tight(er) spec units they needed.

Next layer is that these tests were done a long time ago. The characteristics of OCXO’s do change
with time. What was once a tight spec unit may not be so today. What was once a bit noisy may be
quieter now.

I would not worry a lot about the different dash numbers on decades old 10811’s.
