Using Echolink with Inrico TM-7

Echolink operation is possible with the Inrico TM-7. But until the developers of Echolink add the possibility to map the PTT button of the radio to key transmission, you need to tap the touchscreen once to start transmitting, and tap again to stop. From a usability perspective, it works fine. We are just not used with the technique. Anyway, we are hams! We always like improvising!

You can always send an e-mail to Echolink and request such functionality!

Note: To install Echolink on your TM-7, you will need to install an app called “Set Orientation”. You need to have it set to “Reverse landscape”. You will understand why! 🙂

Enjoy the video below.

Inrico TM-7 Video Demo

The Inrico TM-7, branded BN500 by Broadnet, looks great in the car. Its small dimensions allow an easy and stylish installation.

The BN500 version is locked to Broadnet, which means you can not install apps like Zello or TeamSpeak to use with the IRN.

So the best option, really, is to buy the original Inrico TM-7 sold by network-radios.com, with pure Android, so you can install any app from the Play Store.

You can watch some other videos of the Inrico TM-7 below.

Echolink, IRN (TS3) and Zello at the same time

As many of you, who use Echolink (after v1.5.3) and the IRN, know that most of the android radios’ PTT will activate Zello automatically even if you are on TeamSpeak, which can be very annoying. The truth is that Zello, after version 3.53, added such annoying functionality.

One of the workarounds was to assign the PTT button to IRN (Team Speak3) and the SOS button to Zello. Well, we can live with that, but how could we bypass this problem with the new Inrico TM-7 (that only has the PTT button on the mic)?

The solution for the TM-7 and all other network radios, and while Zello does not remove this stupid function (or at least to allow the user to decide to turn it ON or OFF), is as simple as to install Zello v3.53 on our devices and the problem is solved.

Remember to disable Auto-Updates or else, you will get the new version installed again. One good practice, is to keep a local copy of the Zello v3.53 on your android radio so you can install it again and again. It just takes a few seconds and the user data will be preserved.
