Its all in Osterman's book.  I owned all these rigs.  The 2280 is the 
predecessor of the 82, not the overall series.

The 82  added some features, see Osterman. If you don't own a copy, get  one.

Hi John
 
Much as I think Osterman is a great book it does contain errors.
I haven't got my copy to hand but I do have the 2280 manual in front  of me 
and what you're saying directly contradicts what Plessey had so say  about 
their own receivers so I'm afraid this looks to be one of those  errors.
 
All models are marked 2280, but the 1985 Plessey manual specifically  refers 
to the receivers as the 2280 "series" and identifies two main  models.
These are the 2281 and 2282 as Michael noted, with their module  
configuration identified in Table 1 right at the beginning of the manual  followed by a 
comment that the configuration of model 2283 varies according to  application.
 
Again as Michael commented, the 2281 and 2282 share all modules except for  
the front panel. 
The all singing all dancing "2280", with full front panel controls etc,  
really is the 2282 and that's straight from the horses mouth.
 
Dave, if you'd like a pdf copy of the manual email me off list and I'll  sort 
out getting a copy to you.
 
regards
