Astro Spectra VHF w/W3 head

I have a late model Astro Spectra VHF 110w with the W3 hand held control head.

How can I change to the W9 head? Do I need a vocon, or just change the head type in the RSS?

I know in the earlier versions of Spectra that the A3 hand held head set up didn't have the data in the MLM to support any other type of head - was hoping that this wasn't the case for the Astro.

I really don't want to use the HHCH, even though it works just fine.

Any help/info would be appreciated!

Your best bet is getting someone to do a trade for what you want.

You'd have to do some serious hacking to get it to work. NOTHING like the normal spectra's.

Here Is What You Need To Switch Out The Head:

W9 Interconnect Board For High Power Radio,
Remote Cable For W9 Head, W9 Controle Head & Mic

And Most Importantly A W9 S-record to Dump Into Target Radio.

Thats what I did.....
