Replying to Solution for Radio Attachment on Black Diamond JetForce 25L Avy Bag?!

Hey NS,

I currently have the PIEPS Jetforce Tour Rider 24 , its reaching almost a decade old and I'm going to replace it with newer technology. The JetForce 25L from Black Diamond is the obvious choice for upgrading.

To anyone that has this pack, have you been able to successfully place a radio in the pack, and have the external cord/walkie connect to a strap on the pack? I've read reviews and almost nobody has mentioned this aside from one review that read:

"What i don't like is that there's no way to have a radio in the pack and route the wire into a strap as a more permanent location. I had to cut a hole in the fabric. I know skiers and snowboarders carry radios also."

Just curious if any of you have dealt with this in similar/other ways!

Thanks so much!
