Which Keyloader do I need for this board?

Post by CHEFA2001 »

NTN1564A (DES-OFB/ des-XL BD
I need to know which keyloader(s) are cpmpatible with this board for my astro saber3.

PLease let me know, and if you have any other comments on this setup, as my business associate and I will be splitting the price of the keyloader and I need to know if a standard keyloader will work.
If so, must it be a certain version, and if I want to use ofb -vs- des-xl, can I use a different unit, depending on which I choose OFB or XL)?

Thanks

[/b]The KVL3000 will do what you need. If you want to buy a used keyloader look for a DX version. :-?

Either the DX or the KVL will do what you need.

Got it, the DX revision or the KVL3000 units. I will keep a lookout for either one. Will also look at Dayton!

ANy ideas as what I should expect to pay for either one?
I believe that the 3000 is a current model and therefore would be quite expensive, right?

Radio_man,,,, <OUCH>, I guess it's either I stay home, Not go to Dayton and buy that unit, or try and hunt down a D model.

LOL. Thanks for the info though. Was that price with scrotumola, or used?

I had to ask....

ONLY DX VERSION KEYLOADERS will work on Astro products....or a KVL-3000.

Upgrade kits ARE available to upgrade BX and CX version keyloaders to DX.
