Proper Interconnect board for Astro Spectra Dash

[Leadenwah]

What is ( are ) the proper interconnect board (s) for the Astro Spectra dash mount mid power mobile?
It seems that there were two, but I'm not so sure.

The 2 interconnect boards that I have found are the HLN6401A and the HLN6432D. The last one is listed for the W5 and W7 heads. If you go to the repeater builders site, you should find more info.

On that same note, you will also find a reference to another board that is used on the older Spectra. With some mods, the HLN6066b can be used. You need to cut 3 circuit traces and add a couple of wire jumpers. Do not use these boards without cutting the lands first.

The correct board is the HLN6401. That is the only one dashmount units ever had. Ones from a regular spectra may work but wont have all the paths for firmware upgrades, etc.

Keyloading won't work either.. found that out the hard way.

Thanks very much for the information.
