UPGRADING NON ASTRO SPECTRA TO ASTRO

Post by boem2134 »

Can anyone tell me the part numbers of the boards I need to replace in a Hi power spectra VHF to be able to flash it to a astro digital.

Thank You

It would probably be cheaper to find an Astro radio. Something like an XTL-2500, 3000, or 5000. Your looking at at least replacing the main control board. You would be luck if it interfaces with the rest of the boards in the radio. Unless you find a radio that some service shop has that has been declaired not economical to repair, your going to be SOL.
