Jack, I don't know how you got those numbers either? Maybe you transpose something/

See below, but your SN would mean May 1993, 1st production run and the 5th one produced. That is if I read the information below correctly?
But thanks to everyone for the help.

Serial Number Information
Position Meaning
Digits Pre-1992:
BEFORE Week or month of manufacture, either correct or reversed depending
the letter on model and year. "72" could be either 27th week or 2nd month (ignore the 7.)
Post-1992:
Month of manufacture. Could be represented as single digit
NOTE:
Dates indicate when the radio was scheduled to be manufactured,
not when it actually was ... the actual date of manufacture could be one or two months
later.
Letter Separator. "C" from 2000 on. "A", "B" or "H" before.
First digit AFTER Production run number within the month (or week in early SN's)
Next three digits Sequence number within the production run.
Last digit Last digit of year of manufacture.
So that .. 12C10480
: Scheduled to be manufactured December 2000, Run 1, #048, but may have been built a
. month or two later.

according to the tentec code for serial numbers:

amplifier s/n 5b10053

means:

5 = may
b=separator
1=production run for that month
034 =unit number for that run
9=year of manufacture
