Recent P25 trunking feature price?

[Techholder88]

Anyone here recently add p25 trunking to one of their radios? I have a m7300 which was practically given to me, it has EDACs and p25 conventional but not trunking. Is Harris still charging $1100 for the option? I know the cost to add phase 2 but was wondering what the cost would be for phase 1. Wanted to pay the money to add phase 2 to a p7300 and a different m7300 but found out that the feature strings didn't match what TAC has on file (i.e. they were hacked). Yes I know I can ask my dealer for a quote but I figured I would ask here first.

It looks like it’s about $1,380.00 the price list I was look at was from last year.

Here's a price list from 2021 if this helps

Harris price list

I saw that price list before but I took another look at it and found something interesting: for the M5300 or the XG-25 (newer radio) the price to upgrade to P25 trunking on that list shows it for $750 list ($555 net), but it shows $1100 list ($814 net) for the M7300. Man, the former would be in the ballpark but the latter makes it cost prohibitive. Thanks for that price list!

I'm afraid you have a useless brick, quite literally a doorstop; whatever you do, do NOT order option 39!! You can easily buy a used M7300/XG-75M with option 39 for between $150-$400 (approx). For reasons I cannot fathom, numerous people who know absolutely nothing about Harris radios purchased piles of 700/800 Open Sky & EDACS M & P 7xxx radios, and try sell them on Fleabay for hundreds of dollars; usually they don't show screenshots of the option codes, sometimes they will explicitly state they have no idea what options are included. Those are totally worthless bricks, they should only be bought/sold as parts radios for maybe $20-40.

There are numerous great sellers on Fleabay, they will always post screenshots of the features and option codes, and/or send you screenshots if you ask. You can also find good quality used Harris radios on several facebook groups. The bottom line is keep what you currently have for spare parts, and buy something with option 39 already included (and if you can find it Option 47 as well). Also beware there are a few idiots occasionally selling Harris radios on Fleabay that were improperly shipped from the factory with Option 47, but NOT option 39. Those radios are also useless bricks.

I second what @natedawg1604 said. I paid $100ish for my XG-75/7300M with P25T & Phase II.

I'm in more of a pickle with my 100M. I'm not trying to spend $1400 on the two options but there aren't many out there to buy with the options included. Would love to swap with a ham who would prefer my unit having wideband unlocked than trunking in theirs.
