Hi Gary -

Sorry for the delay, been AFK for a few days. From all I've seen, Tony
has it right. I've seen the all-black version (ala S-40B), the tapered
ones w/inserts (ala SX-101), and the later large-fluted knobs like the
SX-115 and SR-150/400/2000 series transceivers used (different sized
main tuning accepted). My SX-62B has the latter style. IIRC, the early
black-knob versions had the lever bandswitch knob.

As far as the panels go, it's harder to recall the exact combinations.
I know I've seen the light seafoam green lettering on the aluminum
panel with either black or white, and all black on aluminum. Again,
weird colors on the earlier versions and basic black on later.
