I am a ham radio operator. I am also a little hearing impaired and wear Oticon hearing aids. I would like to use a Bluetooth transmitter from my hand held ham radio and receive audio into the iPhone and thus into the hearing aids.
iPhone 12 mini, iOS 18

Just wondering whether using the iPhone as a microphone for the short-wave signal to reach your hearing-aids could be worth trying. See how to: Use Live Listen with Made for iPhone hearing devices - Apple Support
NB: Hearing-aids would likely need to be a "Made for iPhone: (Mfi) compatible model

There's also an Apple support article online:
