I'm looking for recommendations on a chest rig that would be good to hold one or two Prc 152/148s with some sort of management for the antennas.  A map pouch would be a plus.   Less concerned with carrying a shit ton of magazines.  So far I've found this Mayflower UW rig that might fit the bill.

Anyone have experience with this one?

Other suggestions?

Would I be better off with an OSOE or TT molle rig and getting all the pouches separately?

I think you'll get more flexibility if you get an all MOLLE rig and set it up the way you want. Have you seen these -152 pouches (check out the video)? They look pretty slick.

Oops not the SKD version but the regular eagle universal chest rig has two radio pockets that would fit a 148/152 each. I think it's out of production.

A similar pattern is the TAG Phalanx, they make a few versions.

The UW should do what you need it to very well.

Awww, come on now...  Maybe CONUS, but we at least wear MultiCam when we're deployed.

(Disclaimer: Not a JTAC; I'm on the other end of the radio)

All my TACs wore plate carriers with 2x PRC-152's and a pouch for the scan eagle console.

Thanks for the suggestions... that fold out pouch looks pretty well put together, maybe I'll start with that and the issue plate carrier.
