Joe, 

I have had both and currently have an "A" model. The plain has black/grey 
cabinet (matched the SB line) and knurled knobs while the "A" had a brown 
finish (matched the HL and last HW line) and smooth knobs. Electrically, they 
both are equal, IMHO. I liked the plain better because the knobs fit my meat 
hook hands better and seemed smoother.

I have worked the "A" version into an Alpha-Delta 160-80-40 sloper at 250 watts 
with no arcing. It should take a full-gallon without getting warm. Note well 
that the correct match must be obtained before applying maximum smoke.

You should really enjoy the tuner. Another note: The bypass position has a 
separate coax jack so hook something to it if you intend to use this feature or 
you will get a nice surprise.

I previously had a Drake MN-2000 which performed great but lacked dual metering 
and 160. The SA-2060A filled the bill. Good luck.

Semper Fi,

Tommy - K6YE
DX IS
