W3 Interconnect

Post by Dale Earnhardt »

Hey Everybody,

If I remember, correct me if am wrong, but isn't the the Interconnect board on a W3 different then a low power W9? I need to convert my W9 to a W3 and trying to remember what exactly I need on parts.. anybody remember or have some for sale or trade?

You will need the W3 interconnect, unless you like smoke :o .

Lance: What?
Kilgore: Napalm, son. Nothing in the world smells like that.
Kilgore: I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...

I can help. Gimme a day or so to dissect my mid-powered W-3 for the P/N for the interconnect board.

Thank you.... now I just need to find out if anybody wants to buy the W9 head, cable and the board. Unless somebody has a W7 remote mount head they wanting to trade for a w9 head? Am trying to figure which route to go now to outfit my car.

Let me get this straight, the board we are talking about, the (HLN6574) which is the interconnect board, is the board that connects the radio to the face place correct? So the only thing I would need is just the interconnect board replaced and I can use a W3 once its dump with another codeplug?
