A portable radio device is adapted to function as a wireless charger. The device includes a power supply source, a power control circuit, a controller, a power amplifier connected to the power control circuit to draw a first supply voltage from the power control circuit, and a source coil. In operation, the controller receives a request for charging at least one other device coupled to a receiver coil. When the receiver coil is positioned within a predetermined range of distances from the source coil, the controller switches a connection of the power control circuit to the source coil and controls the power control circuit to increase the voltage to a second supply voltage provided to energize the source coil and to inductively couple the source coil to the receiver coil at a predetermined magnetic resonance frequency for wirelessly charging the at least one other device.
