The 152A's are currently the better radio. The comment about PJ's having 152's is correct, the 152's do heat up and then tend not to transmit no more than 50 meters. The new radio is the 152A, hence the Alpha after the 152. It has more waveforms and capabilities so there fore it is far better. The reason we went with the MBITR versus the 152 in the beginning was due to SCM which allowed you to speak while jammers are on, ofcourse with the help of your DAGR and RCU. The JEM's currently have internal gps. Now we have ASCM and if you dont know you better get on it. For you guys that are planning a PMT, get a hold of JOE Calderara @ 910 396-1191. These are the guys that will train you on the newest jammer and ASCM. Yes Harris is on the ball but Thales is trying to make a comeback. The are testing the MBITR2. it is a 2 channel radio. I have the info if anyone is interested.

Break

Glebo, we came in to some 150's and are planning to send to 1/1st and 1/10th. I am pretty sure we can push something your way.
