Just an inkling of the number of cellular base stations out there!  And that's 
just the ones made by Motorola.  There's probably twice or three times that 
many made by Lucent (I believe Lucent calls their Rb units FTU's for frequency 
and timing unit).

Connected by DROID on Verizon Wireless

The ones with the 2 labels have a date code as the 4 digit prefix on
the S/N - so a unit that says "S/N 0416-756124" was made in week 16
2004.  All the ones I've seen date from 2003 or 2004.

The board they were originally attached to was largely empty -
although it did have a label indicating that the board name was "HSO"
(presumably "high stability oscillator") and a part of serial number
stickers in a format that instantly made me think "Motorola" (the P/N
started with SGLA4000, IIRC).
