Now someone needs to make a civi knockoff of the Thales Spear. Same fearures as the JEM (JTRS Enhanced MBITR) but fits in a single M4/AR15 mag pouch.

Or you know. You could buy a yeasu or icom rig, and its even smaller/lighter and nore useful than some chinese tri/tca knockoff. |

Back around two or three years ago TRI did a very limited production run of them that would do 10-meter FM, but they were very rare. Haven't been made that way since, but their literatur and many websites selling them still claim it has it. |

On the the MBITR, you need to toggle between FM (normal) and AM when entering the frequency if you want to hit the air bands. You can tune aviation freqs in either FM or AM but the radio won’t work obviously unless you are in the proper modulation. Ka |

You can tune aviation freqs in either FM or AM but the radio won't work obviously unless you are in the proper modulation. Ka But on these TRI radios, they automatically put themselves into AM receive when you go down below about 136 MHz, as evidenced by the appearance of "AM" on the display when in that band area and the disabling of transit capability. There is no way to toggle between modes, as they were designed to only have AM receive in the airband and only have FM TX/RX on the usual Chinese radio VHF/UHF band split. What I heard from one of the importers was that some country wouldn't allow them to be imported and sold if they could receive airband, so the manufacturer just decided to disable the function in all new production radios. I'm sure it's a software edit and could be re-enabled, but that will require someone finally figuring out how to hack into their firmware. |

It's not, they just never changed the instructions or the label on the box. The one I have is the same way. The only time I've seen someone claim they had a working 3-band version was the FB group, where the big US importer guy swears they were real, and one guy in Europe who claimed to have one. The lack of proof out there make me believe that if they did in fact exist, I bet they never imported any to the US. |

That's not vaporware. It was a super limited production run. Go on the steel soldiers page, some wound up in the hands of milveh restorers, and the bulk went to foreign airsofters with HUGE bank for kit. A guy that claims to be a manager for an airsoft product company states they are making them now, and allegedly released a fakebox version, basically selling the radio shell I suppose to make enough capital to stuff them. Same guy that has been teasing a 152, that if it acts and is built how he is saying it will be, will be a serious contender, with probably a harris replica price tag as well. LOL |

Slightly OT:
If you have legitimate PRC-148 or -152 batteries, you may want to check out this ebay sale for a Bren-Tronics BTP-70810-USB1 148/152 USB Charger & Battery Status Meter https://www.ebay.com/itm/233551755037 I just got two, and they were delivered new in box.  On my Harris -152 batteries, it shows 4 green LEDS with the press-to-test button depressed, and it provides enough amperage to charge my iPad.  On the TRI battery, the battery meter doesn't know what to do, cycling between the 1st and 4th LEDs when pressed, but it still provides charging to my iPad. It appears that BrenTronics also has a Power supply available that, when connected to this meter, can be used to stand-alone charge a -152 battery. (ref: https://www.bren-tronics.com/btc-70810-1.html)  Not bad for $29.99 each, with free shipping! |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By GunnyG: Slightly OT: If you have legitimate PRC-148 or -152 batteries, you may want to check out this ebay sale for a Bren-Tronics BTP-70810-USB1 148/152 USB Charger & Battery Status Meter https://www.ebay.com/itm/233551755037 I just got two, and they were delivered new in box. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/12179/68A2B8CF-291C-4B84-8072-C94B943C0637-1487285.jpg On my Harris -152 batteries, it shows 4 green LEDS with the press-to-test button depressed, and it provides enough amperage to charge my iPad. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/12179/43A23493-54EC-4D3E-9686-60C08F98A30D-1487284.jpg On the TRI battery, the battery meter doesn't know what to do, cycling between the 1st and 4th LEDs when pressed, but it still provides charging to my iPad. It appears that BrenTronics also has a Power supply available that, when connected to this meter, can be used to stand-alone charge a -152 battery. (ref: https://www.bren-tronics.com/btc-70810-1.html) https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/12179/1E2F1AED-52BC-4CB3-8F81-1216C2A7B592-1487288.jpg Not bad for $29.99 each, with free shipping! I have one. They are awesome. Also I just picked up new 6.8 mbitr battery off ebay for cheap but sadly they are all gone now. The 6.8 batteries are beasts. |
