Batboard

I just bought to VHF Astro Spectras here on the board and having an issue with both, they are both doing the same thing. They turn on fine, no error codes. Scan and receive fine, but when I transmit, when I let off the PTT button on the mic, the radio continues to transmit. It does not transmit from the mic because I talk into it and tap it and it doesn't tx the voice or tapping. Can't change channels or do anything with it at that point. I have to shut it off and start over. Any ideas? hopefully something small I overlooked....

serial 412AWQ0211 and 412AWQ0218
model T04KLH9PW9AN
flashcode 100004-000000-4 not the original flash, was upflashed


I have two other Astro Spectras that I hook up to the same setup and they work fine. both also W9s

AWQs? Old radios... have they been recapped yet?

Are you running them off a bench power supply by chance?

Jason

Don't know if they have been re-capped...
running them off the power in my car, with it running.

Do they have UCM's in them ?

nope, however, I tried cloning another codeplug to it, but didn't notice it had a slight difference and didn't take, and then tried again for sh*ts and grins and its working, not locking up..... :-\

Hacked codeplugs in them perhaps?

Jason

Did you try a KNOWN GOOD control head?

Same control head I use everyday with my personal setup, has worked like a charm for a few years
