Where can I find the model number and serial number on my Kenwood product? The manufacturing number is typically embossed on the underside of your machine. It will consist of four numbers and a letter, for example 09H25. You may need a good light source to see it, but it.

Hi All, Kenwood Serial Number

Kenwood Serial Number Lookup


I have a previous message posted concerning 2 TS-950sdx's and
this subject. I have another question though--If a Kenwood radio has
spanned 10 years or more, how do you tell which decade it was
manufactured in ??

Does anyone know when the TS-950SDX started in production ???
I know that there was an 'S' and an 'SD' model before the 'SDX'. I am
looking at 2 SDX'S, and one of their serial #'s start with 00, and the
other one starts with 10. The guy with the 00 model says that he
bought it in 1999, which could make sense as 00 translates into either
1988 or 1998. I don't think the SDX was manufactured in 1988. The guy
with the one starting with 10 is not the original owner, and thinks it
is an older one. Could it have been manufactured in 1989 ??? I don't
think the SDX went back that far. PLEASE HELP !!!
