I have got to use a WiFi radio (Logitech's "Portable" model) over the
past few months.  It comes with thousands of streams already loaded and
I suppose that it could be used to // signals, also.  Yes, it is another
electronic gadget, however it produces less RF than a PC+Monitor combo
or laptop.  AND there is nice entertainment value too - get the optional
rechargeable batteries and remote and take it to the deck or patch it
through to your home audio system.  It also streams MP3's from your PC.

A very nice write up, Jim.

I think you can use globaltuners to ID a signal, however....if you hear
a parallel with a radio on globaltuners, then you can listen on
globaltuners until you hear an ID....if you have the time to continue
listening there.

Now, your description of racing around trying to ID things while your
computer freezes up on a webstream is very apt, but I figure that some
of what I parallel is pretty much a local at the listening site; the
Hano Bay tuner lists Pori on 963 as one of its regulars, which doesn't
seem unreasonable, so the ID on the hour from there will do for me.

Another site worth checking that goes beyond Europe is
http://www.multilingualbooks.com/online-radio.html which is where I got
my Iran 1503 parallel from.   Of course, they also suggest R. Farda is
in Iran...  

Thanks again for the write up.

best wishes,

Nick
