spectra narrow band
stupid question: How can I find out if my spectra is narrowband compliant?

IIRC only the Astro Spectras are narrowband compliant...jmr3865 wrote:stupid question: How can I find out if my spectra is narrowband compliant?
Re: spectra narrow band
That is true... to a point. Not all Astro Spectras are narrowband compliant. Just takes a different RF board to do it though.Cowboy wrote:IIRC only the Astro Spectras are narrowband compliant...jmr3865 wrote:stupid question: How can I find out if my spectra is narrowband compliant?

Doh! I learn yet another new thing every day Every Astro Spectra I've encountered has been on a narrowband system anyways; we must be special here LOL.JAYMZ wrote:That is true... to a point.

Re: spectra narrow band
Yeah, you're special alright... j/k
Not sure exactly when the Astro Spectras became narrowband compliant, but I think the CDM series were narrowbandable out of the box. Kenwoods OTOH have been narrowbandable for several years already.

Re: spectra narrow band
Umm.. I think the Astro Spectra has always been narrowband capable, but the early ones wouldn't do 2.5 kHz steps, so wouldn't access every channel.

Re: spectra narrow band
My fleet of Astro Spectras were purchased in 1994 (VSELP) and as Hartley said above, do narrow band but not the 2.5's.
Re: spectra narrow band
I stand humbly corrected then... good to know.
Now I gotta get off my <self moderated> and update my ASpectra with my county's new channels.
