Title: Candlestick Strike Out
Post by: HarrySmith on May 14, 2018, 04:02:13 PM
I have seen candle sticks before that the model number has a strikeout through it bu never on the transmitter. Is this a normal thing? Auction here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/372302713191

Sure. The new part # is probably stamped on the front of the diaphragm in vermilion ink, along with the conversion date. Usually visible if you unscrew the snuff catcher.

OK. Thanks, first time I have seen it.

It happens fairly frequently, and most of the "victims" seem to be these 323s w/o the AT&T markings.
