    Ahh, so this is the previous model by TCA, had one myself. At first I thought you were doing a review on the latest 2023 model with inbuilt GPS receiver, which I have now instead - it definitely does not do APRS I'm afraid, but is a nice radio nonetheless

      Hi, what's different between the GPS model and this one he's reviewing?

      @@OopsieAI believe the one he’s reviewing is an older model from 2017 they recently updated it this year the one he has it just a fake antenna but on the new radio it’s a real gps module

      I have a 2023 TCA 152A and the GPS just gives coordinates. Do you think mine is a genuine 2023 model?

    So basically the tiny antenna on the back is for the GPS? also, could you do a video showing us the insides of the PRC-152?

    The TX audio issue might be because it has an ultra narrowband audio setting (2.5KHz). Check to see if it can be reset to 5KHz dev.

    I did the same damn thing with the Tri KDU recently… I noticed you said the pin out is different… wonder if it’d be possible to modify the pin out to work with the TCA? Apparently the new TCAs from 2023 are “KDU compatible”… assuming that means no TCAs were before 2023…?

      I hate that there is no standardization. No brands are compatible, even different versions between same brands are apparently not.

      Chinese competitors I guess. What I'm trying to say that between different brands there is very little need or wish to make kdus cross compatible. @@IvyMike551

      @@abccde3832 You'd think the manufacturers would try to keep the data port pin-outs as close to the Harris as possible. Of course they're probably all using different digital protocols anyway, so I guess they weren't worried about it.

      What good is 10 W if antenna is rated for 5W? You could be damaging radio transmitter since electricity bounce back. (also known as SWR)

      It's not a 'hoax'. It's a lookalike, designed to mimic the appearance and some of the functionality of the real thing.
