Benshi Dash

BenshiDash: The Ultimate Dashboard for Your Radio

Tired of squinting at tiny screens and navigating confusing menus? BenshiDash transforms your Android tablet into a powerful, full-featured head unit for your favorite Benshi protocol-enabled radio. Get a crystal-clear, at-a-glance view of your radio's activity and unlock its full potential, right from your dashboard. 📻✨

Key Features

At-a-Glance Dashboard 🚗: A beautiful, modern interface displays both VFOs, RSSI signal strength, GPS status, nearby repeaters, and live APRS data. It’s designed for easy in-vehicle use with large, clear elements.

Live APRS Mapping 🗺️: Watch the action unfold in real-time! BenshiDash decodes APRS packets and plots them on a live map. View packet details, track stations, and see transmission paths without needing an expensive, dedicated TNC.

Advanced Scanning 📡: Go beyond basic channel scanning. Manage your scan lists with a simple tap, or use the powerful VFO scanner to discover new frequencies. Set your start/end frequencies and step size, and let the app do the hunting.

Effortless Programming 💻:

Read & Write Channels: Easily edit every parameter of your memory channels—frequencies, tones, power, bandwidth, and more—directly from the app.

RepeaterBook Import: Automatically find and program the 32 closest repeaters to your current location. Perfect for road trips!

Save & Load Memory: Backup your entire radio's channel list to a file on your device, and load different configurations in seconds.

Complete Radio Settings ⚙️: Adjust core radio functions like squelch level, mic gain, power-saving options, and transmit timers without ever touching the radio's physical buttons.
