• To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:

    Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.

    If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.

    To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.

    The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.

    For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).

    This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this post but, I'm wondering if anyone else is having trouble with network-radios.com. I bought from them a few years ago and everything went fine, but now I've tried using their online chat numerous times and no one ever responds. I've tried emailing them a number of times but again, no one responds. Does anyone know what's going on with that company? Are they actually still doing legitimate business or have they become a fly by night company that will take your money and run? I want to buy the Inrico T320 and they seem to be the only place in the USA to buy network radios. If anyone knows what's going on with them or where I can buy a legit network radio, please let me know.

You can buy an Inrico T320 on Amazon or eBay. There are other vendors but these two are probably the most reputable at this point.

Thank you for responding. I'm a little hesitant to buy from Amazon and Ebay because of a previous purchase of the Radio Tone RT4. They sent me a used Sure F25 with the former owner's info still on it. Recently, I read reviews from Amazon and they still sound just as fishy. Network-radios.com, who I've used before, now seems MIA. I'll keep searching though.

Yeah, the push to talk over LTE radio scene seems to have gone stagnant. While major players like Motorola, ESChat, and Peak PTT have developed their own devices, the devices that you can put Zello or TeamTalk on seem to have gone nowhere in the last few years. I've been waiting for Inrico...or someone, to come out with a 5G version with a more recent version of Android, but so far no luck.

Yes I agree with you. I don't understand why companies like Inrico use such old versions of android and are stuck at 3G and 4G. I did see the Inrico S380 on www.sidewalkradios.com that says android 10, but I'll wait a while before jumping into something that may not be perfected yet.
