trace.  In the 6R1A, the horizontal position of the 0% zone can be set arbitrarily.   
Internally, the 6R1A differs from the 6R1 in how its functions are implemented.  The
6R1 uses about seven tunnel diodes while the 6R1A uses only two tunnel diodes.  The
6R1 uses several Nuvistor tubes.  In the 6R1A many tubes were replaced by transistors.
Take for example the front end of the SIGNAL COMPARATOR board.  In the 6R1 it uses two
7586 Nuvistor triodes.  In the 6R1A it is two NPN transistors.
