Hi Stacy,
Yes you can!
Press options then the letter C for connectivity. Space down the list till
you hear active connection details. Press enter and you will find the
signal strength option which is a negative number. Minus 30 DBM is stronger
than minus 60 DBM. I average between minus 40 and 60 here. Sometimes mine
works at minus 70 which is quite weak.

Jim or anyone,
Is there a way that you can check the strength of your wireless
connection??
I've not had any trouble so far but just wondered.
Stacey and Amigo

Nancy,
The cutting out of the audio stream is very normal depending on
your
connection with DSL, Landline or Ethernet. Sometimes the audio
stream has
to catch up with itself thus it occasionally cuts out. Much
depends on the
quality of your connection. There is a buffering process which
takes place
with audio streaming. This audio stream is saved ahead of time
so if there
is a problem, hopefully you won't notice it. Unfortunately, one
does
encounter occasional problems though.
I'd recommend you try www.billsparks.org. That site has many
fine oldies
stations and you can actually find that category.
Enter with Dots 4, 6 turns up the volume in your M-power and dots
1, 3 with
enter turns the volume down. I'd say you are doing quite well
thus far.

Hi. I've had my m-power for about a month now, and I've never
tried audio
streaming until tonight. I went to: interactiveacbradioorg,
went to
listen in Winamp and entered. It seemed to automatically play
with the
media center, and I tried to read through the manual about audio
streaming
but couldn't find much about it. I didn't log on, just went to
"listen
with winamp and entered. Even with my over-the-ear headphones,
I heard
some talking, some music, but it would cut in and out. What am
I doing
wrong? How can I get a clear, continuous, nice audio sound with
this? I'm
excited, but I need specific steps (maybe using the example of
the
Interactive stream with Acb radio) until I get the hang of it.
It sounded
like it could be very exciting, and I kept hitting enter with
dots 4-6
chord, but it was louder with turning up the speech. Don't just
give me
the section of the manual to read, but give me some specific
steps for
this example to make it work, and I'll practice, practice,
practice.
Thanks very much for any information to make this enjoyable for
myself and
others.
Nancy I have a transplanted 18-35ll braille keyboard. I love
oldies, and
I'm embarrassed that I can't make it work without it cutting in
and out.
Nancy
