The lot number is the first to digits after the letter.  

While the RF PWR control does control the power output with the PROC on 
even without the mod, it does not behave at all linearly.  If you have 
difficulty controlling RF power with the processor turned on, you need
to check for this mod.  Your signal will also get very "peaky" if you 
dont have the mod and turn the RF PWR control down.
