ATAK over VHF / UHF
The Radio Relay ATAK plugin bridges your BTECH radio to ATAK over Bluetooth. Every teammate’s handheld puts them on a shared live map — positions, markers, and chat riding the RF you already carry. No towers, no internet, no subscription.
Your radios become a networked map.
Connect the plugin to your radio.
Launch the plugin in ATAK and pair with your BTECH radio through the standard Bluetooth dialog. The plugin auto-detects the model and sets the correct protocol.
Positions, markers, and chat route automatically.
The plugin pushes CoT markers, GeoChat, and position data across the radio network. Every nearby radio appears as a live contact on the ATAK map.
TAK Server relays to the rest of the force.
A gateway EUD syncs the radio net up to TAK Server and out to any operator in Network-Only Mode — HQ, other sites, any element that needs the picture.
Every capability, tested in the field.
01 RADIO Radio Integration
Bridges all in-range radios onto your off-grid EUD with options to relay over TAK Servers and MANET, displaying positions as virtual contacts visible to every operator on the team.
02 TWO-WAY Two-Way CoT Marker Sync
Relays CoT data — markers, routes, contacts — between off-grid ATAK EUDs and TAK Servers, LAN, and MANET. Syncs Meshtastic, trackers, and TAK Server contacts back to the radio network.
03 MYCELIUM MYCELIUM Mesh Networking
Self-healing mesh layer that auto-links every in-range radio into one resilient network. Individual nodes drop, the mesh rebuilds — TAK Server sees every leg, and operators stay on net even when the link to HQ goes dark.
04 TWO-WAY Two-Way Chat Bridge
Facilitates text-based GeoChat conversations between radio-equipped operators and TAK-only users. No translation layer, no message loss, no format drift.
05 EUD EUD Gateway
Every EUD acts as the gateway between the radio mesh and ATAK. Bridge multiple deployed networks, federate to allied teams, or run Network-Only when isolated — the operator's device is the bridge into the picture.
06 GLOBAL Global Repeater Panel
Live repeater data from networks worldwide, pulled directly into the plugin. Search by frequency, callsign, or proximity — push the selected repeater to your radio in one tap.
Every repeater on Earth. One tap to your radio.
The plugin pulls the worldwide RepeaterBook directory straight into ATAK. Filter by band and distance, watch every match drop onto the map as a live marker, then push the frequency, offset, and tone to your BTECH radio — no manual programming.
Filter the world directory.
Query 200,000+ HAM and GMRS repeaters by band, distance, and mode — right from the EUD, online or from a cached set.
See coverage on the map.
Every match drops onto the ATAK map as a live marker. Read the lay of the land before you ever key up.
One tap to the radio.
Push the repeater’s frequency, offset, and tone straight to your BTECH radio — no manual channel entry.
Run the radio from the map.
Key up, change channel, set power, and read the S-meter without ever reaching for the handset. The plugin drives your BTECH radio straight from the ATAK interface — eyes on the map, hands on the mission.
Key up from ATAK.
Push to talk straight from the map interface — no fumbling for the handset in the dark or under load.
Change channel and squelch.
Step channels, set frequency and squelch, and read the S-meter live — all from the plugin.
Set low, medium, or high.
Dial output power to match the mission — conserve battery up close, reach the repeater when it counts.
See it in action.
Product walkthroughs, operator field reports, and technical deep dives. Run on real hardware, not marketing footage.
