To my knowledge, the unit was a LST4200A type box, with minimal tweeking. It
was a bit better (in some regards) to the bit earlier LST3100A in terms of
front end performance. I think that the LST3100A was their first major single
conversion terrestrial unit.
AFAIK...
And yes, 5th GEN is pin-for-pin compatible with 4th...
