[Premium-Rx] Wj 8616

[Geoff Greer]

    According to the data sheets the 8616A is very similar to a 8617A but 
the frequency range is 20 - 500 Mhz.  The 8617A is specified as 20 - 1100 
Mhz.  The '16A & the '17A are in the same brochure.   What model 8617 is 
available?  There is quite a bit of difference in the different '17 models. 
The most desirable being the 8617BS1.

  BTW, the latest 8616A brochure I have seen is from 1981.
