I'm gonna go out on a limb here as say that you are trying to program Systems Saber radios with regular Saber RSS. I came to this conclusion due to your other post about trunking Spectras.

If they are Systems Sabers (trunking radios), then you'll need Systems Saber RSS.

System saber RSS and regular Saber RSS are not at all compatable. The easy way to brick a saber is to use systems on a regular or vise versa. The the latest release of saber Rss is 07.01 from 1995.

Similar Design, but that is about all.

If you have done this you will be the first person I have ever heard of....

These are simply different radios with RSS that is much different.

The Sytems Saber, Saber, Astro Saber, and Saber SI are all very different radios although they share a similar design....
