I bought an Astro Saber III--digital 800/900. I thought I would be able to get it programmed here with the radio techs but they backslid on me. I nned to get it programmed to scan only--I can transmit on the high band but not on 800. Any suggestions or can anyone do it...I'm not computer literate so I don't think I can do it myself.
Thanks in advance,
Jimmy

Astro saber will not do 900Mhz, it's strictly 800Mhz.
Odds are what you want to listen to on 800Mhz is trunking and that will also be difficult, much better left for either A) the radio programmer to do if you are authorized to, or B) purchase a scanner.
Re: Astro Digital programming
Either have the sysadmin program it for you, or sell the radio and buy a scanner.
