No worries Leon - I think it was the complete lack of clips that threw me a curve ball - hopefully all will be clear when the proper bit of kit arrives courtesy of a very very nice man :)

ah i can contribute here, if only a little bit- it's good, when you do get a daysac yoke, to thread the female clips at the top of the daysac through the radio lead guide loops on the top of the shoulders of the yoke itself, as that ensures the daysac sits upright and does not slump backwards. also to clip all four top clips in, not just the two middle ones, to stop the thing wanging around when you are walking.

oh and as another poster said, don't bother to unclip the yoke when you put it on the bergen, just zip it on and i've never had it fall off.

Hmmm cheers ozzy (I think). Tell you what guys, when Ark Angels care package shows up, I'll lay it all out and do a photo shoot of how I put it together. You can then all snigger and correct my mistakes. Deal?

That's a point actually - I've never been happy with my single pouch arrangement. How are you doing that? Are you just not connecting the lower clips to the yoke?

the double plce set up should be connect all four clips at the top of the zipped together rocket pouches, the two either side of the join clip to the yoke base,
the waist belt goes through the loop at the back ot the pouch and finally the front yoke straps clip to the last two cilps on the rocket base with a utility strap that should have three male clips on.

for the single set up you clip the top of the pouch to the yoke, then pass the waist belt through the loops at the back of the pouch (the base clips on the yoke arent used) the utility straps the clip to the base clips on the pouch.

the loops on the bottom of the rocket pack and the extra clip on the utility strap is to enable you to do away with the standard plce yoke and make a patrol type web set up.

if thats what you were after :)

Thanks - that makes a bit more sense. I have the Web-Tex stuff and it seems that some of the loops on the side pouches are just a fraction too small to pass the buckles of the waist belt through. Anybody else found this problem??
