Help Pls, Spectra Programming

Post by Dougdeutsch »

Greetings,

I am attempting to reprogram a frequency in a dual head Spectra system.

I can program the radio and the front control head OK but how does one go about making changes to the rear control head? Since there are two control cables and one needs to be pulled to plug in the programming cable.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could explain the proper sequence.

Thanks in advance,

Doug

After programming the front head, unplug the front head, plug in the rear head, turn the unit back on, press the F button that says program rear head.

When your done, plug the rear head into the other DB25.

Lance: What?
Kilgore: Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like that.
Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...

Press F8 to Program the front head power the head off unplug the head, plug in the rear head turn the head on and press F9 to Program the rear head, When your done plug in both cables to both db25 one for the front and one for the back it should work fine.
