Two Types Of Colorado 1800 Power?

I was digging away in the “small room” which looks like a Hiroshima of antennas, microphones, radio’sand the like where I came upon my President Texas 1800 Power (retired, needs new whip but discontinued) then I saw three Colorado 1800 Power Packages. One new, one used was bought in Czech Republic and a second which had a completely different look to the other two antennas So it was antey.by which answered my question it seems.

I’ve got two of the right hand one and one of the left (new) which is a Colorado 1800 Power in a different shell it seems. Never EVER noticed when I bought it. Whips are same length etc just a different case on outside, plus looks at the base different also.

Above is the inside of the shall I say original one.

Seems it was sold PL and also SO239 body mount. Having checked at PJ Box & PEPOL President Poland indeed seems two sorts were made maybe? Only odd one out in is in Kazakhstan where it states President 1200 antenna.
