Mary and Howard are correct. You have five companies that own most of
the radio stations in the states. Most of the talk stations are
conservative.
They also didn't mention that cellular towers, noisy power lines and
transformers from an ageing power grid, computers everywhere, and,
While I've not dealt with every type of media player that ever was, I don't see
how one could get a whole lot better (as far as accessibility is concerned)
than Winamp; just my opinion, you understand!

Don't know what kind of broadcasting is done in Australia, but here in the
states there isn't much that I'd turn on the radio for--no matter how good
the radio be.
Being a radeo ham, I have a Kenwood TS-590S. The receiver on this one tunes

Ah true that. Also some other players will do things easyer or in a
better way. I can't really comment as I haven't played with Win-Amp
much. I do have it and I forget why I got it. But as I found no SRS Wow
effect I never used it much. I do use VLC loads for streaming but again
for files
I'm not going to get into the discussion of accessibility or otherwise of
Winamp compared to anything else because its so pointless and its been threshed
here heaps of times not to mention comments regarding accessibility these days
are just far too general, the comments below being no
As you've read I have a Sony DAT Walkman, wonderful piece of old equipment that
puts a lot of m modern-day Digital recorders to shame.

Winamp is the most accessible media player for the blind. It may be
old, but it is highly functional. I am listening to online radio with
it as I type this message. Braille slates are more than 80 years old
but they are still used because they are useful. I also own and use a

I think unless I'm forgetting the F8N will hav a digital in. Am I
wrong?I forget right now.

I'm looking at getting some new microphones actually, debating on the

I have some Sony microphones I use, they're not brilliant but they do the job

Ah yeah that's why I even got rechargeables in the first place. For my

mine did at least. I don't know. I'm loving my H6 though. It's an
awesome recorder. I've used my Audio-Technica AT-8022 with phantum power

Yes it can. Just tell it in the USB Connection Menu you want to use it
for AC. Then to it's cable connect 1 of them little boxes like at the
end of an IPhone cable, and there ya go. What I'm not sure of is when
you use it with the PC if it uses the USB power then. But yes it can
draw AC wall
Well again that simple answer is very general the voltage difference is
such between rechargeable batteries and Alkaline that my DAT recorder just
won’t run on Rechargeable Batteries, a shame because if any product could
really use rechargeable batteries then the DAT could but they won’t work
i would love to get it when it comes out.

Just out of interest can the LS-14 be powered from its USB port assuming it has
one? I don’t own one so don’t know.

The other thing I find fascinating about all this is that company’s who work

Shame you feel that way as there’s plenty to recommend a radio such as this if
you’re thinking from a content perspective.
Actually one could argue that its probably better to be able to listen to
long-distance radio given the rubbish some local city stations broadcast and
then you’ll never
Sure would have been nice to have this radio (or something like it) 60 years
ago. I'm not convinced that there's anything out there worth having a good
