Astro Saber 3 question

motastro1 · Post by **motastro1** » Mon May 01, 2006 7:30 am

I have a UHF Astro Saber 3 403-470 split and I am trying to find out what it is worth. The model number is H04RDH9PW7AN with a flashcode of
000008-002000-8. I have a bunch of radios and I am thinking of selling some of them off but haven't decided for sure yet. Any help would be appreciated.--Thanks!

300.00 to 500.00 at most.. if it comes with antenna and battery.. that just my opinion lol

Flashcode translation (from Radio Reference Page):

H38/G51 Smartzone Operation
Q241 ASTRO Ready (Analog Operation ONLY)

Your radio is a general equivalent of a System Saber 3 because it
doesn't have P25 capability, but even so people are beginning to
stand in line for them. The display is much more
user-friendly than a Saber's, which to me is a big plus for the AS3.

The radio would come with battery,antenna and charger. The battery holds a charge pretty well but not as long as a new one would. Also,shortly after I posted this I checked with the big M on the flashcode and Tom in DC is correct on what is in it. I didn't want to put it for sale on the board for an unrealisitc price but if 300-500 is a realistic price range I would probably let it go for 400 or 450 since it is in excellent condition,but if I am going to list it for sale I should probably put it in the for sale forum.--Thanks guys,once again people on the board have come through!

What is the host and dsp? People aren't going to pay a whole lot for a radio that does VSELP.

Here is more info I got out of the radio. I think this is the info K8TEK is looking for:

R05.60.00 and DSP A06.05.02

Any other pricing ideas?--Thanks

Hello all, how to decode the DSP and Flashcode version and functions? Where can find them?
Thanks!

If the DSP begins with an A or M, it is analog only... N or I does digital.

In order for the radio to do IMBE, it first needs to be flashed for it. Secondly HOST needs to be 04.00.00 or higher, DSP needs to be 06.00.00 or higher.
