Thanks for that.

It does seem the specification of the 10811-60111 is poorer than the 
10811A, as the formers time domain stability at 1s is twice as bad 
(10^-11) compared to that of the 10188A (5x10^-12), and just about every 
other parameter is "not specified" on the 10811-60111.

It is particularly annoying when I has some suspicions it was not an 
10811A, so asked the seller

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7505853855

and he confirmed it was, and then said I could have an 10811-60111 if I 
wanted for the same price. I made it clear I did not want it, so he 
sends me it anyway!

I sent him a mail saying:

"I have sent you payment for this. Please ensure it is the HP10811A and 
not the HP10811-60111, which you said in an email you also had"

So he sends me an HP10811-60111 anyway!
