I thought that TAFN's anouncement recently of the update to its radio links
page would be good news for some here.

It is also worth mentioning that Leon Gilbert, the web master of their site,
has recently acquired 3GHz of server space, so the site will be all new and
exspanded in the not too distant future.  There will probably be a good deal
of audio streaming.
