Astro Spectra PLUS programming cable ?

Post by BIODTL1997 »

Does anyone have a schematic of this cable? There doesn't seem to be any info on this anywhere whatsoever!

Thanks!

It's the same cable as used on the XTL 5000 "W" series radios. Same connectors, everything.

With the transition to RIB-less cables and the concurrent price drop there is little motivation to "roll your own" anymore. I guess if you were really cheap and already had a cable you could cut the end off and wire a Hirose plug on it to work with a Hirose-Spectra keyload cable.
