For units made within about the past 10 years, Sanyo has made finding the manufacture date easy.

I find it difficult, and this time impossible, to determine the age of older units. I'm sure these two are the same vintage, but the serial #s aren't giving it up.

I haven't seen any with the fake wood decal since the mid 80s. Can anyone determine if this guess is -correct -close - -way off?

I uploaded a Sanyo Serial Number ID Doc for you Bill, got it direct from Sanyo.

I don't see it in the new files section however - perhaps it has to be approved first.
