Replace the housing, some of the time the keypad under the housing is already a M3 keypad. Just get a M3 housing (bit hard to find nowadays). Dump the s-rec of a ASIII radio to your target radio. Align it to spec.

Feel free to correct me if needed

What is meaning of "S-rec of a Astro III" ?

S record of the radio. Basiclly the radio codeplug but in it's unpacked form. You need to use MTSX Lab to dump the s-rec to the radio. You can probably ask someone for this file. But asking for the software to do so is definitely out of the bounds.

Please advise which verison of MTSX Lab to be used?


Thanks
