HI there
This is my first post as a newbie and I wanted to register my Hacker Hunter RP38a. Unfortunately I cannot seem to locate the serial number. The only number I can find is '45547' on a sticker affixed to the underside of the bottom panel, but I do not think this is the serial number. My Hunter has the one piece handle, sheet aluminium type grille, black 'Hacker' badge to the upper left on black leatherette, wooden end panels, white scale print with 'Hunter VHF' to the top left, fitted dc input socket (but sadly no power supply lead), silver tone controls and a 'gold' speaker.

I paid £50 odd for it just after Christmas, and am suitably impressed by the build quality and sound.

Assuming the number above is not the serial number, where is this usually found?

Best regards

Martin
