We are concerned with positive radial solutions of the inhomogeneous elliptic equation $\Delta u+K(|x|)u^p+\mu f(|x|)=0$ on $\mathbb{ R}^N$, where $N\ge 3$, $\mu>0$ and $K$ and $f$ are nonnegative nontrivial functions. If $K(r)\sim r^{ \alpha}$, $\alpha>-2$, near $r=0$, $K(r)\sim r^{ \beta}$, $\beta>-2$, near $r=\infty$ and certain assumptions on $f$ are imposed, then the problem has a unique positive radial singular solution for a certain range of $\mu$. We show that existence of a positive radial singular solution is equivalent to existence of infinitely many positive bounded solutions which are not uniformly bounded, if $p$ is between the critical Sobolev exponent $p_S(\alpha)$ and Joseph-Lundgren exponent $p_{ JL}(\alpha)$. Using these theorems, we establish existence of infinitely many positive bounded solutions which are not uniformly bounded, for $p_S(\alpha)<p<p_{ JL}(\alpha)$ if $K(r)=r^{ -\alpha}$, $\alpha>-2$.
