I have a BUSHIPS ( Navy) modified 75A4 and according to the supplement
  to the manual (520-5468-00), it was done in June 1956.

The Bands on the engraved overlay for the bandswitch were:

160         2.5 to 1.5
80           3.2 to 4.2
40           6.8 to 7.8
20           14.0 to 15.0
4.7          4.2 to 5.2
13.5       13.0 to 14.0
5.7           5.2 to 6.2
10          29.0 to 30.0

The only other mod, according to the supplement, was to
add a mount to the bottom for shipboard installation
and the 4 to 1 tuning knob.
