Radios and audio adapters

Radio Messenger connects to your radio over Bluetooth, or through an audio adapter for radios without it. Set a preferred radio so the app knows what to use, and save presets to switch frequency quickly.

Bluetooth radios

Works well with Bluetooth radios such as BTECH UV-PRO, VGC VR-N76, and Kenwood TH-D75 with a B.B. Link adapter.

Audio adapters

Other radios can use an audio adapter, for example Digirig Lite or AIOC. Plug it in and the integrated modem uses it automatically.

Preferred radio

Pick a preferred radio in Settings → Preferred Radio so the app knows what to connect to by default.

Frequency presets

If your radio supports frequency control, save Frequency Presets to switch frequency from the app. Remember that the frequency sets your messaging mode.

Disconnect and reconnect

In the radio panel, tap Disconnect to release the link for another app without forgetting your paired radio. Auto-reconnect pauses until you reconnect, so you don’t have to pair again.

Adjusting performance

  • Audio Levels appear when an analog adapter is connected, for setting input and output levels.
  • Advanced Parameters fine-tune the radio link. Change these only if you know what they do.

See device compatibility list to find out if a radio is supported.
