HHCH W3 Astro Spectra with VRS ?

Post by kyledooley »

Apologies in advance if this has been covered. I tried searching and haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for.

My ideal mobile setup is a W3 UHF Astro Spectra with HHCH and a VHF VRS. I haven't been able to find if the W3 is compatible with a VRS or not.

Also, I gather that you can't just use any Spectra and put an HHCH on it, you need a W3 specific radio. I'd appreciate a confirmation either way on that.

Thanks.

I know for sure that the O3 head is not compatible with the VRS and according to the above thread, it's not compatible with the W3 as well.

Go to the VRS enable option in the CPS, right click and read the help. It will tell you what is required to enable the VRS and I'm pretty sure it will also tell you that the VRS is not compatible with the W3 head.
