The hd radio that Radio Shack sells isnt bad.  I think the name on it is 
Accuron or something like that.  It isn't as accessible as it should be, but 
I can usually navigat around it okay.  I think it sells for around $200 to 
250.  I got it for a really good deal myself.  It was priced at $199, on 
sale for $149 with a 25.00 rebate, and then I had 25.00 that I wasn't 
expecting to have, so I actually got it for about 100.00.  The speakers 
don't separate, but they have a decent sound for what it is, and it does 
have an output so it can be connected to a better amp and speakers.  I have 
a Bose Wave Radio and I hooked it through the Aux on the bose.  I found a 
station that was hdswitched between the Bose tuned to the same station and 
the HD radio, I could hear a definite difference.  But check out that Radio 
shack unit.  It's not bad for an entry level radio to get you into HD.

 I don't think that there is one best sight -- just a lot of
 good ones
 that the serious listener needs to be aware of.
 One reason for saying this is that no one database has
 everything.
 Another reason is that different websites have differing
 approaches to how
 things are organized.
 For example, I often use that streamingradioguide page I posted
 yesterday
 for its handy
 having a state's listings right in front of me.
 When I want to do an area search, I often use the Radio-Locator
 site as it
 gives me an overview of what the local radio dial looks like.
 Billsparks.org works well when I have a particular call letter in
 mind and
 he happens to include it in his database.
 Vtuner.com is also great for quick call letter searches.
 MikesRadioWorld strong suite is international listing; Vtuner is
 also
 heavy into this.
 In short, the avid internet radio listner nees to be familiar
 with as many
 sites as possible and figure out which one to use given the task
 at hand.

Hi, Dana.

Actually, my favorite tabletop radio is the Boston Acoustics HD Receptor, 
which comes with a satellite speaker for first-rate stereo production. It's 
true that stations can be hard to tune into and that you must wait an 
annoying five seconds for HD channels to play, but the sound quality is 
superb. Here in New York City, there are extra HD channels for classical 
music and the only source of sixties oldies. Even regular FM stations sound 
better than I've ever heard them. The cost of this radio has lately been in 
the $300 range, but I got it for $250 and I believe that price is still 
promoted from time to time. I haven't double-checked C Crane for its current 
pricing.

2007-04-13 Thread Gary G Schindler
Chuck,
 I think the information you have been given is correct. there is a marked 
improvement in the sound of the AM, but if your market only has one AM station 
broadcasting a digital signal, which is turned off at night, it isn't worth the 
expense of the radio. also to a middle aged person rounding the bend becoming a 
senior citizen, there aren't enough formats to my liking being broadcast on the 
HD 
channels that would persuade me to buy an HD radio.
the Accurian radio I looked at from the shack had poor sensitivity too.

 a link doesn't work.  This may be for any of many reasons:  the station is
 no longer streaming, they changed their link, they are temporarily down,
 or they are not streaming a parrticular show for contractual reason.

 WWhen I come upon such situations, I always check another site or 2 or 3

Does anyone know if it is possible to listen to talk shows that are on A M 
radio, over the internet?  If it is possible, would you explain how to do 
so?  If you wish to send your reply off list, my email is:

Sure! Find the web site of a station that carries the program your interested 
in, and play its live web stream through an appropriate media player, such as 
Windows Media Player, Winamp, or Realplayer.

If your synthesizer pronounces them identically, instruct your customized

Hi,

The best thing to do is to navigate to the AM radio website and look for a 
listen now link and press enter on it.  Many stations will offer real time 
listening or audio archives of their programming.
Some stations will offer streaming using windows media player, Real Audio 
player or perhaps some other streaming utility that they have contracted to 
use.  Thus you may need to download and install that player if you don't all 
ready have it installed.

hth...Keith

The short answer is yes dependent, of course, what exactly you are after.
If you'd be more specific as to either the stations or stations or shows 
that you were interested in, someone could likely direct you to a more 
specific answer.
Streaming, archiving of programs, and podcasting are becoming very common 
so it's likely you can find what you are after.

Vicki, try Radio Locator, I think the website is http://www.radiolocator.com or 
something like that. you can find stations listed by foremast, call letters, 
city 
and state and so on. you may find list for shoutcast streaming audio too.

Actually, it's

www.radio-locator.com

with a hyphen between radio and locator in the url.

Keep in mind that keeping track of streams is an ongoing work in progress.
Hence, if one doesn't find what they want in one search engine, try 
another.

Another good resource for locating US stations is this link:

http://streamingradioguide.com/radio-station-list-by-state.php?state=



When you launch this link, you will be prompted to fill in the 2-letter 
state code for the state you are interested in ie;
il = Illinois; fl = Florida, etc.

I have found this resource a good one for checking if a station streams.
