XTL 1500/5000 Audio Problem

Hi All,

I have a XTL 1500 that was flashed up to 5000. It is currently installed on the bench with a PSU so i could program it before installing it in my vehicle.

The Radio has a W3 HHCH attached to it. i have powered the radio via PSU and also connected 12V via the 26pin accessory connector.

I have programmed up the code plug and uploaded it to the radio.

Channels being used are just conventional UHF. I can receive audio fine and it is presented out the speaker.

When i Key up the HHCH the radio goes into transmit but no audio is passed. Carrier is presented on the receiving radio but no audio is heard.

Hoping someone out there has any ideas i can check.

Cheers,

Andy

Do you have the proper interconnect on the the radio? The W3 has it's own board that no other head uses.

I will check this when I get back. I would have thought so considering the head powers and can receive audio but who knows??

Do you or anybody else out there have the part number for the correct interconnect board required???

Thanks
