Z-273 EPROM Board:
NOTE:
For the CTCSS and receiver to work properly [ie audio out to speaker to work] on the Midland
70-066 transceivers – Make sure the 8 pin plug is plugged into the white 8 pin socket
J903
on the Z-273
EPROM board.
There are two methods of changing the EPROM data for different frequencies,
1. Using a MRP70-1000C (MRP-70) programmer box and software. This method allows you to
program the EPROM on the Z-273 board, without de-soldering the EPROM from the Z-273 board.
The programmer box can be purchased in Australia for approx $300 or from the US for approx
$450 US;
or
;
2.
Remove the Z-273 board from the Synthesizer Board. Then remove the 2716 EPROM using de-
soldering equipment from the EPROM board. Then solder a low profile 24 pin socket to the
EPROM board.
Reprogram EPROM with 6 meter firmware, by using the VK2DOT RT85 software or any other
software.
