Yeah no probs se7en thanks for starting this thread.

I am helping out a mate who got his hands on an old Motorola analogue spectra. Information on the net points me to an obsolete version of RSS that requires original DOS (win 3.1) to run which is a real pain as my pc's all run win7.
After some ping pong coversations with a good bloke put me onto CPS (R05.03.00).
I'm just waiting for a rib and cable to come in the mail to get the ball rolling.
I have installed the CPS spftware and when I launch the program it gives me an error message stating that the file can not be found. I have found reference to this exact fault on another forum where the fix was simply plugging in the rib.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Does anyone have experience with programming spectra's or using the CPS R05.03.00?
 
You know I do bro.
Lets see if.some fellow hams chime in.

Some information:

Astro saber line includes:
Astro saber & xts3000.

Astro spectra is astro spectra.

Astro25 line includes:
XTS5000
XTS2500
XTS4000


Astro25 has it's own CPS.
Astro saber & xts3000 use the same CPS.
Astro spectra has its own CPS.

Thanks for the clarification on the different lines.

Do you know the name of CPS for each line
For example

Xts3000 needs (astro saber + xts3000 CPS R??.??.??)
Xts5000 needs (astro25 CPS R??.??.??)
And spectra needs (spectra CPS R05.03.00)

Please logon to Motorola for information.

Xts3000 & astro saber final cps is R05.03.00
Latest astro25 is I believe R19.02.01(¿) more to come.
Last and final cps for astro spectra is R05.03.00

We need a dedicated spot for commercial gear on WWDX :)

Thanks se7en
This is exactly the information that I have been looking for.

here in Australia there is a huge following for using modified commercial radios for uhf cb (477mhz) and also for ham (2m & 70cm)

No problem bro. Check it out: I will not post free pirated software. Just so anyone who thinks this is the place for it, well it is NOT.

Got to pay to play. ;-)
