It's easily fooled.The microphone-handset connection on the AN/PRC-148 (V) multiband inter/intra team radio (MBITR MBITR Multiband Inter/Intra Team Radio (US military) ) needs to be fooled if you want to connect the improved tactical headset (ITH ITH If That Helps ITH Instituto Tecnologico de Hermosillo (Sonora, Mexico) ITH Ithaca, NY, USA - Tompkins County (Airport Code) ITH Integration Time Horizon (environmental gases) ) to it. The microphone-handset connection has six pins. One pin is in the middle and live surround it. The pin in the middle has a 5-volt current running through it. This current Jets you connect a powered electret microphone. However, the Bose Tactical TriPort ITH needs to operate either unpowered Adj. 1. unpowered - not having or using power; "an autogiro is supported in flight by unpowered rotating wings" powered - (often used in combination) having or using or propelled by means of power or power of a specified kind; "powered flight"; "kerosine-powered or powered by 12 to 24 volts. The low live volts put out by the MBITR center pin causes the ITH to switch back and forth between powered and unpowered mode leading to unreliable operation. So fool the MBITR into thinking it's connected to a generic handset like the H-250 by putting a small piece of electrical tape over the center pin on the microphone-handset connection. When the center pin is covered, getting good comms Shorthand for communications. See telecommunications. with the ITH should be no problem. |
