I picked up a Rockford grade 640 which is a 21j pendant set hunter mate to the 645 I think. I found an old discussion topic on this grade but there isn't much out there on it or the 645. It appears that 1-2 thousand were produced of the hunters and there was some debate if the grade was adjusted to only heat/cold/iso or also adjusted to positions. It appears when it comes to Rockfords there is not a lot of discussion or information out there.
Can anyone add some deeper insight on this grade?

I sometimes pick Rockfords on the fly and I saw this one on the big bidding site and it went for the opening bid (only bidder) which shocked me a bit since it was in a nice 20yr Philly case with no traces of damaged hinges or brassing that I could see. Around 200 seemed a decent price especially for a nice 21j hunter. I picked up a beautiful 21j model 4 Hampden adj5p in a near mint case for under 100, sometimes I am thankful for bad photographers. When the Rockford arrives and I have it cleaned I will take some photos. It is near the middle of the first run but digging deeper I see there was a later run but I am not sure they are marked differently on the adjustments or not.
