I was recently given an ASTRO Saber III VHF, H04KDH9PW7AN, from a friend that had got out of the business, and did not need it anymore. It still works good, but I need to change the MDC ID, re-arrange the channels, add mine, and try to get the ERROR 09/10 code off after self test. I tried to read it with my ASTRO portable RSS, R08.60.00, and got the code plug too new message. I tried to read & write it with my ASTRO/XTS3k R404.01.04 and I got several errors, and the write aborted. The read was good (maybe an error or two there also). Well I sent it back to the local shop, and it was sent back to M from there. WEEKS LATER I got it back from the D, with a three page letter, saying that it was a parts build radio, and I could call for a quote to fix it. There was another radio shop that had written it successfully in 2003 for my friend. All I need is to program the radio.
Does anyone know where I might find a listing of software version numbers that was in use in 2003? I think maybe an older version might work; I just need a number so I can get a copy.
I hate to let it sit. Its in MINT condition, and I think this flash is pretty good too? F50101-8F0000-7

first off the 09/10 is because secure is enabled in the codeplug and there is no board in the radio (or its bad)
4.01.04 will work just fine, in fact some other versions may not be able to read it at all (codeplug too new).
if you can read the codeplug, send it too me and ill take a look at it and see if i can figure out whats erroring, odds are its something haveing to do with modat and emergency signalling.
modat can be a pain in the arse when it wants to be.
