I decided rather than order another adapter which might not fit I'd put
a BNC
connector in for the wide band input. Electrically it is trivial as
claimed.
Mechanically, I had to make a large hole in the plastic front panel to
allow tthe
BNC plug to slip on.
This is the first complex HP instrument I've had. I was right at home
with the
1980 construction. The first computers I designed for Sidereal in 1975
also used the 6800.
So do I call it a 3586B+ or B-?

One less connector interface to worry about, and less risk of getting the cable
tangled up and breaking the adapter.
And it looks good.
The 3586 Option 003 has the same bandwidth selections as the C model.
Without Option 003, the 3100Hz bw is replaced with 1740 Hz , not nearly as
useful.
