President line of radios

Anyone know where I can download an owners manual for a President Zachary T. AM Base? I would like to know what the output for the PA is watts/ohms max. Thanks.
 
As far as I know they did have 2 versions of the Dwight D one with a 858 and one with a 2816 , but I have only ever seen the 858 in the Zac.
The schematic`s i have on the drive shows both the Zac and Teddy share the same main board PC 198 .
You could very well be right as they may have switched PLL`s at some point in production.
I still think the P.A. output in the radio would be the same, they are using the same Audio IC setup.

Yes, it shows the same board as well.....I have to go look at the schematics to compare...and the Teddy is the only one I can find a User manual for that list`s the Spec of the radio.
Several of these radios are based on the same boards with additions for more/less features, but as the board is the same, same audio IC and circuitry should equal same pa output.

In addition to what Jazz told us about President Radio, and the controversy about the Roosevelt radio, Here is the Mystical President Harrison that most people have never seen.
Although it was sold under other brands, this is the one that was indeed a President

That would be the president roosevelt, built by maycom, sold as ss4900b and maycom bs27, possibly others, uniden spat the dummy and they were never made, but the president harrison was made in limited numbers (very collectable?) which is the same as a maycom em27 or realistic trc 1080, possibly others as well.

I happened across this vid from Simon the Wizard
