My Volunteer FD was given some EF Johnson EFJ5100 VHF portables by the state. I know the antennas and speaker mics are compatable, are the batteries the same as an XTS?

Looks like the Chief is going to be ordering some batteries from you soon.

I think I read here the whole reason for the 5100 was some government (AU, NZ???) needed "competition" for high tier handhelds so Motorola worked a deal with EFJ. I think they even used the same RF board for awhile?

What type of connector is the XTS and 5100 for the Antenna? SFJ,SMA,SJ?

I purchased a PRC127 antenna for mine, have not received yet but it may not work...

SMA They seem to work better with the long motorola wideband antenna

If it is a PRC127EFJ SMA type it will work. If it's just a regular old 127 antenna then it's just a Bendix/King threaded post type and it won't fit.

The Antenna for the EF Johnson is an SMA-F (Female) adapter, the one for Most Motorolas.
The PRC-127 Antennas I purchased are post type and only work on the old BK product
