My 1982 4001 is identified as a "modern 1984 or later" model. why?

Post by Bighouse »

I noticed in the registry that my 4001, made in September of 1982, is identified as a modern era model made after 1984. How is that established? Seems it should fit into the 1971-1983 era.'=

" This item was identified as a Modern (1984 and up) instrument
The following is a summary of sales of above referenced model gathered from actual sales on eBay:
*Basis for comparison: Same model, same strings number, same "special" features, same era"


For the record, my serial number is VI 2371.
Because I told you before- oh, you can't do that.

Are you sure that you entered it as Vi (Vee Eye) as opposed to V1??

Just a thought. :D

Yup. I entered it correctly. Made in September of 1982. I don't think you can even enter a "V-One"...
