Astro Spectra W4 Control Head Conversion

Post by ncfdemt »

Has anyone here converted a standard W4 control head into a rear head? I am looking for technical assistance to see if this is possible. I have two front heads and am looking to make one of them act as the rear head.

Thanks,

Justin

I haven't done it, but I assume the volume pot is completely different- since it shouldn't have a detent for power.

The volume pot is different, other than that I havent been able to figure out the other mods needed.
