Astro Portables Astro Portables General Information Most of this information is for the Astro Saber, but since the XTS3000 and its family are programmed by the same RSS, a lot of the information will be relevant for it too. All these radios use a standard SMA connector for the antenna. The radio end is a male. Be sure that you use a high quality adapter if you are going to convert from the SMA to something else. There are some cheap adapters that have a recessed center pin on the female side. Install Dante Socks Proxy Centos Iso more.

This causes problems since the center pin on the radio may not make contact and you will be transmitting into an open (bad). The radio uses a third generation keyloader, there is a retro kit to upgrade the DES-XL key loader, and the data in and out pins are different. Only keyloaders with a model suffix DX or later will properly keyload an Astro, while BX & CX (as well as DX) models will work fine with a regular Saber.

Astro Saber and LAPD There seems to be a number of people interested in the Astro Sabers that the LAPD uses. This section will try and answer many of those related questions. First, the radio that the LAPD is using is the H04SDH9PW7AN. You are probably better off not trying to get Motorola to flash your Astro Saber 'just like LAPD's'. Motorola considers FlashCodes 840101-8F0000-4 and now 500-7 to be RESTRICTED.

If you send in a radio to the depot for service with one of these flash codes, they will only send it back with H35 and you have to buy any upgrades you want for the radio. If you do try to get that flashed into your radio, Motorola security may get involved and start asking questions. Although it IS legal to ask about it, Motorola may not do it and may get nosey.
