Post by alex »

Looking for one for a 110w 136-162 drawer to convert from a w5-w9. If someone can help me out - let me know.

Nope!

JLF......

What's the difference....

I want to play, but I don't know if i need to make adjustments if I can go back after writing with the latest greatest RSS is a good idea...

As I am guessing one needs lab (which i don't have) to actually force in the codeplug....

Just want to play it safe if I need to flex some muscle in getting this working...

(no, that's not a request for LAB incase anyone wants to get technical)

"F" means limited keypad with display. "H" means full keypad with display. Since a W9 is a full keypad with display, I assumed it would be JLH and not JLF. But I don't know everything. :o

You do need lab or certain special "tools" to force the new codeplug. You can't do it with regular RSS/CPS.

Ah!

Well, XDC, the Drawer started it's life as a W5, so that would explain the limited keypad :) model number.

So I need to make a couple changes in my desired outcome. The change to W9 as well as the updated model number to reflect full featured keypad...
