Model 40-165K (late version) also has three bars, but the panel just above the speaker has a strip of horizontal fluted molding, as well as other minor changes. All three models have a common 6-tube 3-band chassis with 6 pushbuttons (5 for preset stations, and one to select the manual dial tuning).
