Alan -

Yes, almost identical circuits, just "refined" slightly for improved CW, and reduced hum in the audio.

You can change the 6BN8 to an 8BN8 to get the reduced hum improvement.

Performance wise are they virtually identical?

    One additional bandwidth on the Passband Tuner, (0.5 kHz,) and one

    One additional front panel slide switch to control power to the
    accessory socket on the rear panel.

    Tube changed from 6BN8 to 8BN8.

    A couple of other tube types changed, one IF and one other I don't
    recall.

    The 2-A also didn't have the little red "knob" on the sliding dial
    scale.!
