Dan, I just got nosy enough to look....... I think that there is a mistake in the SAMS index.... at least the one that I can see on Lou Franklin's site does......

When I look up Washington... I see the same thing you are saying..... CB-118 says that it is the early version.....

The only problem is..... on the SAMS website... when I look up CB-118.... only the President John Q is in there. It does not show a Washington radio being in there at all. Here is a screenshot of my lookup......

The copy I have came out of CB-128 and shows to be the "two button 858" version. If you have the 128 you may want to look at it just to know for yourself that THAT is the one. At least I think..... this is a boo boo in the index.

came back and added a screenshot of the CB-128 lookup....and the Washington does show up in that one.

I am trying to create a corrected SAMS CB index. Besides the early washington (858) being in vol 128 and not 118, is any one else aware of "booboo's" in the CBCI CB index?

Hi.. Looking for service bulitins for Cobra 142gtl and 89xlr can you help?

I have almost a complete set of Sams PhotoFacts for CB. If anyone needs info on a specific cb radio just like me know and I will see if I have that Volume. KEEP CB ALIVE!
Hello , do you have one for the ranger RHF-618? I bought the radio in 2012 and had work done on it but I ran into some LIFE problems , never really used it and I am finally getting fully back into Radio. I'd like to Align The Radio. Just thought I'd ask. Thank You.
