The "A" version seems to use a ribbon/twin feed for the connection to rear panel built in aerial instead of a single wire.
Likely some other minor changes.
I have an earlier wooden Ekco set in the attic using a DM70 magic eye with filament powered from O/P valve cathode.

Likely one of the first Ekco models with FM. Likely very similar to the U319/U319A.
