[Drake] 2-A vrs 2-B

[Garey Barrell]

Hi Ron -

There are very few differences between the two.

The "B" has one additional bandwidth.  The "A" has 4.8 and 2.4 kHz b/w 
and the "B" has 3.6, 2.1 and 0.5 kHz.

There is two more slide switches across the front on the "A", one to 
select B/W, the the other ACC to switch the power to the accessory jack, 
normally used by the 2-AQ, which as its own switch!

There are some minor changes in the AVC circuitry, but nothing that 
significant.

The 2-AQ and 2-BQ are identical.
