Right - I just had a much closer look, under a magnifying glass, and I can confirm what you say.  The R34 is particularly hard to spot - even knowing 
it was there it took me a while to see it!  Thanks for the information.

Rather surprising that they use the same PCB and just tweak it afterwards.  I can't see that adding the extra parts could be automated.

Cheers,
