Regarding the replacement Astro head faceplates having no Astro logo on them:
I have a HCN-1121A , Astro W-9 head, with Astro logo, but the part number in the faceplate shows only: 15005125X0. There is no " 9 " on the end of this number.
Might this matter ?

You may want to call parts ID first...
I have a 1505125X09 in my hand... there is no Astro on it. I made the same mistake rof did... by using the manual. Go figure.
I never followed up on it though....
good luck

I went round and round for a few weeks. If you order ANY of the Astro Spectra W9 faceplates, it comes WITHOUT the logo.
However....
I ordered the XTL5000 W9 faceplate, and ASTRO is printed on it AND the plastic is black, not brown so it looks nicer in consoles.

Thanks to you all for explaining the situation with the W-9 faceplates which Motorola ships without " Astro " on them.
I'm newer to the Astros than most of you, but am learning that when one steps on to the Astro turf, he's in a different ballpark than the regular Spectra lot.
Sometimes Motorola moves from technology to theology in their mysterious ways.
