TIDRadio BL-1: Portable, Effortless Wireless Programming for Handheld Radios
Programming Challenges on the Go
Many outdoor enthusiasts and travelers find programming their handheld transceivers a frustrating chore. Traditionally, you must connect your radio to a computer via a USB programming cable, install drivers, launch PC software, and manually enter each channel’s parameters. If you’re away from your desktop—or traveling light—this workflow simply doesn’t work.
The TID Radio BL‑1 Wireless Programmer solves this headache by moving the entire process onto your smartphone. According to the Odmaster app description, you can “program your radio with your phone instead of a computer,” giving you true anytime, anywhere flexibility.
Lightweight & Portable: Self‑Powered, No PC Required
The BL‑1 is roughly thumb‑sized and draws all its power from an internal rechargeable battery. It plugs directly into your radio’s dual‑pin K‑type accessory socket—no extra cables or adapters needed. When it’s time to recharge, just connect a USB‑C cable. Whether you’re in the field or on the move, you don’t need a laptop—just your phone and the BL‑1.
Broad Compatibility & Wireless Connectivity
BL‑1 supports over 100 popular HT radio models, including Baofeng UV‑5R/5RM/5RE series, Radioddity, Tenway, Retevis, TIDRADIO’s lineup, and more. The Odmaster app (iOS & Android) maintains an up‑to‑date device list. Simply pair the BL‑1 with your smartphone via Bluetooth, launch the app, select your model, and you’re ready to program—wirelessly.
Smart Repeater Import: Automatic Nearby Setup
Leveraging your phone’s GPS, Odmaster can automatically detect and import repeaters near you. Tap “Import”, and BL‑1 writes the repeater’s TX/RX frequencies and CTCSS/DCS tones directly into your radio. This is a game‑changer when you’re traveling to unfamiliar regions—no more hunting down repeater lists by hand. You can also save multiple repeater profiles for different locations and switch between them instantly.
