ELDERSBURG, Md., Nov. 27, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In 2009 Harris Ma/Com Corporation, better known as Harris L3 Technologies, discontinued support of its legacy Harris P7100 radio.
"The P7100 radio has been a critical communications tool for our military personnel for over twenty years and has been replaced by newer portable radio models, including the Harris P7300 and XL-200," said Kyle Bryant, Director of Marketing. "We realize that being able to purchase these newer radio models may not be in the budget with the increase in budget cuts most local, state, and federal agencies are encountering. Many agencies still continuously rely on these radios to perform, which is why we decided to make significant investments in improving our accessory line for these legacy Harris Ma/Com portables, including the P7100, P7200, and P5100, P5200."
Below is a summary of these improvements at a product level.
