Just got one of these. Thanks for the instructions. Question though. The retention strap on mine is on the side. I'm not really sure what to even do with it. Do you have a visual guide or video on it?
If you have a radio case, the retention lanyard goes over the channel selector knob if you choose to engage it. Many folks don't use it at all but it is there if you want it.
There is an APX6000 case on the mannequin in the background. The XL-200 case is what the tek-lok gets attached to in the video. Each radio case is made for specific models of radios.
It's a little bungie cord for radio retention. You hook it over one of the knobs on top of your radio. For my Kenwood, the strap is on the side where the on/off volume knob is, so I hook it over that. You probably know this, but I'll say it for anybody else who is curious why a radio case needs this extra feature... The radio cases are snug enough to hold my radio even if I shake it upside down. However, radios are heavy and if that wasn't a physics problem when it's time to demonstrate how you won the state wrestling championship back in high school, then it'll be your speaker/mic wire that decides to snag and try yanking it out.

The screw backing for the tech lock don’t stay in place when I try to tighten them, and tips?
Same issue here. No way to get a flathead on the post on the mag pouch
Can you use Tek lok for molle on plate carriers
No, you'll want the molle-loks for that. We have a video here for those as well.
I can not for the life of me get the locking mechanism open on my cuff case. The lever will not open at all!
what radio holder is that one he has ?
