Well I guess we are all waiting to see if switching the microphone only, will work.

Here are the test conditions.

United Star Radio with U228
Unmodified real military PTT with MBITR connection (U229)
Real Peltor Comtac2 (remove MT21 microphone (Dynamic) and install Element (electret)microphone).

anyone think about using this one?
wonder how does this work?

@Socinco, since the link you gave us is a real steal product and we are discussing real steal products being used with the United Star MBITR, I would think it will have the exact same problems.

I just want to know where to order one of these radios lol

Did anyone test it out with Nexus Ptt´s allready?

@Lucky, a Nexus PTT that has been wired how? For a civilian or military headset?

I think it has already been found to work with a civilian headset, so a Nexus PTT wired for a civilian headset should work! But, a Nexus PTT wired for a military headset will not.

Need to know if they now work with Mil Ptt's ..... Nexus ptt's that come with the Msa Sordin Ranger kit that i have

I know i need to change the mic on the headset but i need to know if the radio accepts mil ptt's

Yes, the radio does accept standart 6 pins military plugs

Clearly philster911 did not read the thread.

Everyone understands the radio "accepts 6 pin (or 5 pin) military plugs". Thats not the question. Is the NATO plug wired correctly, that is the question. LOL.

It has been said already a couple of times .. My RS peltor IS wired NATO and it IS working .. Just IMPEDANCE issues with the mic.

TEA, peltor, and TCI make AMP PTT's

Yannos, I hate to be a stickler here....but....

If the mic has impedance issues...as in the transmitted voice is very soft (almost not heard) then it is NOT working correctly. I doubt people will be happy purchasing the radio, using it with a real military PTT and headset and find that people can't hear thier transmissions.

I agree with you that it's CLOSE, but it's not working correctly.

Let's wait until someone takes the real pletor microphone (MT21) off the Comtac2's and replaces it with an Element Comtac2 civilian microphone. This might solve the impedance issue
and increase the volume of the transmission. Then it will be working....

That's what has been said all the way. I am still waiting for a deal for Element comtacs just for the mic to test it.

Hey Yannos, want me to ship you my Element mic for you to do some testing? As long as I get it back :)

Go on MSN bud!
