It's been a while since I messed with my pile of Syntor X radios as well, but I'm sure interested in watching that YouTube video you mentioned. I did a little searching but wasn't certain I was seeing the video by Casey that you mentioned. Got any other clues?
Thanks,
Brad KB9BPF

Hi Bradley,
? Thanks for the input and interest.
Casey and I have both communed with Mike B., aka "Guru of all things Syntor and Spectra". Have you seen Casey's frequency agile X9000 proof of concept Youtube video? It's a few years old now, I guess it's still up.
Mike spelled out the divider theory details (some typical Moto misdirection and Voodoo...lol) and operational order, and Casey pounded out some Arduino code and made the necessary tie-ins to the divider circutry and behold... a frequency agile X9000...albeit scattered across the bench via some hookup wire and Atmel dev boards...but indeed proof of concept.
? I started with disecting the codeplug structure and revealed some of it's ways and means and have written some .xls based frequency to byte value and checksum calculators and some Arduino w/LCD touchscreen code to manipulate memory locations for the same reason...again, POC.
Life & priorities change so I have not visited the project for some time.
