SAMS manual for Washington

[43Echo695]

On the SAMS website they are listing 3 different Washington manuals,
CB222 (twice) & CB128, all Presidents.

Mine is badged Uniden, and manufactured around 1990.

I realise they are likely all much the same, but mine being a 3 button
version, not like the 2 button 4 pin earlier Presidents.

Which is the one for me?

Many thanks & 73's

CB-222 does have two listings in the index but seems to have only one section, so both index listings... (President Late manuf. and Uniden Washingston) are the same section and I think this is the one you want if yours is a three button.

The Uniden Washington 3 button is the same as the cobra 142gtl.

Pretty sure the Uniden Washington will still show the "1001002" number on the serial number plate. This is what identifies it separately from the original 1978 radio with the 4-pin mike socket.

The 5-pin Washington stayed pretty much the same from 1979 until they finally stopped making it in the 90s.

2 button President
3 button President
3 button Uniden
in that order.
