What RSS does the Saber SI really use?

Does anyone here have a working Saber SI with programming capability? If so, can you please tell me what software you are using that actually works?

I've got one here that I got for a really good price, but the MTSX software and the Astro software both don't work on it. I'd buy the right software if I knew for certain which type is right for it.

Internally, it looks a LOT like an Astro Saber, but it only has 256K memory on the VOCON board and the chipset's somewhat different. An interesting radio. It'd
be nice if I could program it.

I've only ever seen them programmed with B02.03.02

Isn't that the version that crashes when you
so much as look at it funny?

And, don't you mean D02.03.02? Or do you mean B?

Assuming we're talking about the same version, is yours stable? Maybe I'm missing
a file or have a corrupted one...

I've got two versions. The LAB version (I could never get to run) and the last version produced and sold to the public, which I use to program an 800 SI I have. The RSS intro page shows the following:

RADIO SERVICE SOFTWARE
for the
SABER SI PORTABLE RADIOS

Version B09.02.00 August 24, 1993
