Bob,

According to Chuck Penson's book:

"Differences in the 110A include improvements in bypassing and filtering, and
an improved LMO. ... Very few original SB-110s got out the door before the FCC
came calling on Heath and it is unlikely that you will find one."
..
"It is difficult to tell the difference between the 110 and the 110A as most
changes are at the PC board level and are not easily detected with casual
inspection.  The front panel of both the 110 and the 110A are labeled simply as
SB-110.  To determine if the unit in question is a 110A you must either check the
blue-and-white serial plate ..., or check the assembly manual cover."

Any typos should be attributed to me instead of Chuck.

Sounds like you may have a 110A after all.  You might also notice that I am
slightly green (SB cabinet green) with envy.  Enjoy your new toy.
