Help with the app

  • Guides: connecting over USB and Bluetooth, tuning, memory channels, the EiBi schedule, installing and recovering firmware.
  • About & FAQ: requirements and answers to common questions.
  • Changelog: what changed recently.

A problem report is most useful with: the browser and operating system, the connection type (USB or Bluetooth), the radio's firmware version, the steps that lead to the problem, and the error message or a screenshot. Bugs in the radio firmware itself should be reported to the authors of the ATS Mini project (opens in a new tab).

Payments and refunds

Support is accepted through Buy Me a Coffee, and card payments are processed by Stripe. The Provider has no access to the full card number.

Getting a refund

  • Within 14 days of a payment, it is refunded without any reason being needed.
  • A payment of the wrong amount, a duplicate payment or one made without the cardholder's consent is refunded later too.

A refund request should be sent to contact@atsminiradio.com with the date and amount of the payment and the name or nickname and email address used. The refund is issued within 14 days of the request, to the card or account used for the payment. Banks usually post it within 5–10 business days.

Unrecognised payment

On a statement the payment usually appears as ATSMINIRADIO TIPS. For a payment the cardholder does not recognise, writing to the contact address is enough. The payment will be checked and, if the cardholder did not make it, refunded. Contacting the bank straight away is also an option.

Welcome to ATS Mini Controller

This web app connects to your ATS Mini radio over USB or Bluetooth LE and lets you control it directly from a computer or phone. It adds remote tuning, memory slot management, screenshot capture, audio streaming, spectrum scanning, theme editing and other features on top of the device's built-in firmware.

Firmware 2.34+: pick a connection method

Starting with firmware 2.34 the radio accepts remote control over USB or Bluetooth LE. Pick by what matters more for you: fast screenshots (USB) or clean audio from the radio’s 3.5 mm output (Bluetooth) — the two transports trade off in opposite directions.

  • USB Serial

    Settings USB Port change Off to Ad hoc

    Works in any Chromium-based browser. Requires a data-capable USB-C cable (opens in a new tab).

    Best for screenshots and theme work. Transfers complete in a second or two. Audio capture is noisy while the cable is connected — the radio lacks the filtering needed to isolate its 3.5 mm output from the USB power rail, so hum and switching noise bleed into the audio path.

  • Bluetooth LE

    Settings Bluetooth set mode to Ad hoc

    Chrome / Edge / Opera on desktop or Android. BLE is experimental in firmware 2.34.

    Best for clean audio. Bluetooth LE carries the remote control only, never sound: the audio still travels by cable from the radio’s 3.5 mm output to your computer. With no USB cable attached the radio runs on its battery, so that output stays free of the USB power-rail noise that bleeds through on a wired connection. Screenshots are much slower (~30 s) because of the firmware's BLE throughput cap.

More than one firmware

Besides the official firmware, the app carries profiles for the Monster fork and for H. J. Berndt's firmware. It works out which one your radio runs from the replies it gets, so there is nothing to pick. When nothing matches, it says so instead of guessing.

  • Berndt firmware is never assumed. It reuses some of the official firmware's keys and what they do there is not established, so the app asks you before switching to it.
  • Missing controls are deliberate. Whatever a firmware cannot do is left off the page rather than greyed out, and on Berndt firmware, commands go out one at a time, a few seconds apart.
