Swinging Radio England Fun 50, 17th September 1966

Per Arne Berggren has very kindly provided two incomplete Swinging Radio England charts (the other one is here). He says: “Please find attached a couple of charts from Swinging Radio England - the upper part only unfortunately. I was not a regular listener since the receiving conditions of the signal from Radio England in Kristiansand, South Norway, where I grew up, was not that good.”
 
We asked if anyone could provide the rest of this chart. Thanks to Terje Isberg and others for their contributions.
 
Can anyone tell us when Swinging Radio England's chart changed from a “Boss 40” to a “Fun 50”?
