Perry, The 3010A prefix identifies that date it was made. It should also have a 10811A marking. The resistor value is for applications needing precise EFC. Usually found in HP 5065A, 5061A, and 5061B. If it also has a 60109 marking it has slightly better short term stability at one Tau.

Hi, In the two HP 105B's I recently acquired both had the 10 Mhz 3010A series oscillator which appears to be pin for pin compatible with the HP 10811 series but it has a resistor value listed on the outer case. Trying to research it, the HP 105A/B supplement vaguely said to take a look at the HP
