    G23 increase Bluetooth range help

    Anyone have any info on increasing range?

    Like to anchor and control music from shore. Get intermittent connectivity even from 30’ at times.

    Thanks for the help!!

    Class 1 long range Bluetooth adapter. Set it up as it's own source, wired as an aux input. I haven't done it, but there are a bunch of them out there.

      Would the screen still display audio being played?

        Can you read the screen from the shore?

          This doesn't necessarily answer the question of BT range, but solves the problem described. We use Spotify and it's as simple as leaving a phone/tablet on the boat as the source and opening Spotify on another phone/tablet and letting it continue to play on the original device. You can control the songs/volume/playlist from shore or across the country this way.

            Of course not, but I don’t want to toggle sources.
