Westinghouse OV-25 « on: July 06, 2020, 08:00:16 PM » Author: LucasColley
Hey everyone just got two Westinghouse OV-25 silverliners from eBay today. One of them has a data sticker and the other one does not. I’m trying to figure out the dates of these beautiful lights. The one that has a label says M.F. But right after that it’s all washed away. Any way I would be able to figure out the date code without the data sticker? Any help would be appreciated!!

Check your capacitor(s) ! There should be a date code stamped on the capacitor body EXAMPLE : 74-40 is the 40th week of 1974 . If you can't decipher it just post a photo of the writing on the cap(s) and someone should be able to figure it out .  :bulbman:

Wow thanks I’ll try and see what the other one is. But would you be able to explain how you found it?
