BT wireless Bt-A1D
The wireless BT-A1D is well made, but trying to get it to work with the Ola radio app is hard work. Also they send the code far too late.

A: Press the power button. The LED will flash green briefly, then switch to blinking blue, indicating it is in pairing mode. Once connected, the light stays solid blue.
Q: Do I need a computer or laptop?
