06 at the front is month of manufacture, or scheduled production run
month. ***If we were scheduled to build a run of a particular model in
June, and for some reason we were delayed to July or August for that
particular run, we'd still put "06" at the front of the serial
number.***
Then the first 2 digits may not be very meaningful. My
Orion shipped 20AUG03 is 03C10193. I seriously doubt it was sitting
around for 5 months (March to August), so the 03 prefix doesn't seem
to have much correlation with when it was actually manufactured.
