I have a self made serial over BT adapter I use with both FT817 and 857, 
I can confirm it's very reliable as I have done most of the testing for 
those radio with it.

I remember an expence of about 7$ for components.

It should be easy to adapt to any tranceiver as long as it can provides 
power or you'll have to add an additional power source.
