Astro Spectra W3:astro setup problems

fpg99 · Post by **fpg99** » Fri Mar 24, 2006 2:37 pm

Have Astro Spectra W3:
D04RKH9PW3ANSP01
540008-000200-5

I programmed the Astro spectra in astro mode
But I’m not able to talk or listen anything from the other two radio, astro saberI and astro saber II

Between The two saber, in astro mode there are no any problems.

In conventional not astro absolutely no problem in all radios

In Rx voice option I have mixed mode and in tx astro, no talkaround
All radio have the same network id number, c4fm the digital modulation

If I transmit in non astro mode from the saber I or II can listen in the spectra radio

No pl o dpl are setup

Does anyone know what this could possibly be, and is it fixable? Can anyone give me some how to fix it?
thanks

The saber flash is 080001-000000-1
the dsp in the cps tracking menu tells me Unknown

If your astro sabers are giving the "Astro" programming option then they are VSELP digital not IMBE digital as your astro spectra is. They will not talk to each other as is right now.

Thanks for your offer. I know a lot of non astro saber and i know how to modify, but unfortunately not know much about astro saber.

I think is not a plug and play change. do i need to change the flashcode?
if is a easy modification for me is ok to trade
thanks

You will have to upgrade the host and dsp in the radio along with the flashcode. Sending it to Motorola is about the only way to do it unless you make a trade with someone who has a vocon that would work for you.

its plug and play, all the info is in the vocon's (flashcode, cp, host/dsp). If your interested, gimmie a holler, and we can work out the details via PM

That's because you are loading a saved codeplug. If you read the radio directly, you will see the versions.
