Re: Dead MLM 6.10 Board

Ed, Your best bet is to get a new MLM from spectragod. The MLM you have may be so corrupted the only way to clear it is to remove, erase, and program a new mask on each memory chip. As for the GM300 I haven't ever seen one prog. with split pl/dpl before. If I get a chance I will try to recreate you...

Re: Spectra VHF High-Power Corrupt Code Plug

Jim- I really appreciate your willingness to help me with this issue. First let me mention that the two radios in question were working fine until I attempted to clone them, so therefore I do not think its a leaky cap, or they would not have been working to begin with. Second, what I did was read a ...

HLA,

I think I have most everything running now. I still would like to have a dedicated PC with DOS 6.22, etc.. to run all my MRSS. Anyways, thank for the help. Oh, which DOS Ver are you using to boot from and are you then using the MRSS on a floppy, or off HD?

Thanks
