Check here. Lots of pinouts for Spectras. Not sure about Astro Spectras.

There are two pins you can jumper for operations without a control head.

If you poke around the batboard, as well as the main site, you may find the info. I want to say it's jumpering pins 23 and 3 or something like that, but it's easy to do once you have the right pins, and you can program/read the radio from there.
