Yes this is strange but true, I'm after a Astro Saber III VHF codeplug. With
conventional analog only. This is for and old VSELP ASIII. It currently has a IMBE codeplug (in it when I got it) 581008-0C1800-8 but this is causing a few issues and would dearly love a VSELP or Conventional only code plug. I know this is a strange request, as most are interested in upgrading there ASIII not down grading. I look forward to so help.

What are the issues?
I don't think down-grading the codeplug will be the answer. But, I could be wrong....

It locks up now and again in self test mode.

before you downgrade look through the codeplug and make sure that you do not have any incompatible options turned on. I would go through and turn off things like the modat software-encryption , otar ect ect. My as-3 came with a "whored out FC" and i would have stupid stuff like direct not shutting off/lockups ect. I went through the programming, and had the radio tuned and it works pisser now. Just a thought before you go nuts looking for a new CP.

TPG,
Astro Saber 3 VHF
HOST: AP_R03.10.07
DSP: R04.03.10
Model: H04KDH9PW7AN
Codeplug Size: 9036 bytes
1meg or 512k? In service mode it shows neither, but the board appears to be 512k comparing it with some other boards I have here.
Thanks for looking
Craig.

Hello just to check your host version R03.10.07. Is it the latest one? I am not sure about Astro Sabers but I am using Astro XTS3000 and my host version is R07.20.00. I thought Astro Sabers and XTS3000 shares the same host. correct me if I am wrong.

No, as he had stated, it's an older radio with older HOST/DSP versions. You are correct that XTS3000 & Astro Sabers share the same firmware version releases.
