Lou, according to HumanWare, the only internet radio source
available is Ootunes, but with 36000 stations to choose from, I
don't think I will get bored! 73, Jim WA6EKS

Jim,
I haven't looked for ham streams with ootunes yet, just radio
station and
online music streams. Seems to me that Tune-in radio had more
choices along
those lines but I guess that's not available on the stream.

Hi Lou, had never heard of Ootunes until getting the VR Stream
software update. I like the fact that you can type in call
letters, a city or country name, or even someone's name and you
might get results. I would like to know if there are more
amateur radio results on Ootunes besides the maritime net, but
that's cool too. 73, Jim WA6EKS

I use Ootunes on the IPod and it works great. One of the things
I like
about it is when you search for a particular station, it lists
every stream
available so you can easily pick the high bit rate ones if
that's
what you
want.

Scott, the Stream is using something or service called Oo-tunes
which I think can be accessed on the IPhone as well, but have no
idea how to find it. The stations available on oo-tunes are
searchable by name, Genres provided either by Oo-tunes or
Humanware, then you can also build a favorites file when you
find
something interesting. 73, Jim WA6EKS

Hi Russ, well, I think it's great too. I have used the Plextalk

was
to load URL's on the card. I wish there was a way of sharing
favorites that are on the VR Stream. I have around 68=20

the Stream. Maybe it can be done using the Companion Reader

Just as an aside since you mentioned the Victor Stream, I have
been using the latest software upgrade for the Victor Stream=20
II,
which now allows you to receive internet rajio. I'm sure it's
nothing new to all of you I-phone users but it really enhances
the capabilities of the Stream which also allows downloading=20

look up stuff on Wicapedia and retrieve definitions on
