syntor x9000 question

techie · Post by **techie** » Wed Jan 30, 2002 10:22 pm

I've got a X9000 loband with a HCN1036E (A9) head.

The head has the 12 button keypad, and the
usual 2 rockers + 2 buttons on the bottom row, and 2 option buttons on the top row.
(scan and TBscan in this case).

I'd like to add a couple more buttons, for MPL, Dir, and Ext.

Am I safe in assuming that I can just drop the buttons in, and program the head appropriately, or are any additional mods to the head necessary?

Does anybody have a few spare buttons that they would be willing to part with?

Thanks

That's correct. Just reprogram the head for the keys you want to add, then drop in the actual keys. That's it.

Motorola no longer sells the "Ext" key, but, the 3805672X97 "E" Key is a good substitute. Here is a list of the keys:

BTW, do not forget to also program the radio's MPL screen, the User Mode Programming "Alternate Transmit Frequency" and set the "Extender" to operator select.

Thanks for the responses..

Anybody have a couple extras, or be willing to do a add-on to a moto parts order?
