They did change the tar type, more than once, and yes, the later ones are a bit tougher. Also flooded grommets they used for some time did not help 
I am sure they were re-using old stock in the later radios.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
