Get yourself a wireless mic and mount your TKTalkie, amp, and power in your chest. I use one of those plastic/fabric pencil holders so I don't sweat all over it. This will leave room in your bucket for fans & bracket, power, and hearing. I originally had the hovi tip speakers but it's not loud enough for big troops. I don't use the loop playing through my TKTalkie as I have a separate system in my pack radio.
