I want to change a control head on a spectra radio. In the software I try to read the radio and get can not access the s9000e control head. I can read the radio with a A9 head fine but need to change the head to a A5. Can this be done, I have v6 do I need lab to do this? But when read with the A5 head I can not. the head is good and works well with another radio. Any help would be great.

You would need lab functions in order to do that. Or you would have to "force feed" a codeplug into the radio. If you have lab, you'll either be able to change the control head type, or bit bang the radio for a different control head (through several bits for the model and control head type).

That is what I thought thanks

I have tried the opposite an it worked, I had a t83-----a5 and programmed it with an a9 control head, it may take a couple of tries or to clone (F5) but it works. Always make a backup of the good code plug before you start playing.
