Well, I've put it on mine but, to be honest, I'm despairing. I can only get four programmes and don't know what the heck I'm supposed to do to get the rest. In addition, I can't get any Help to install either. Have installed twice and am thinking of scrapping this unless anyone can rescue me ...

Carol, Put it on my machine because I've two people on my
back to install it for them!
Works well, but not quite sure that I'd want to listen to
much of it. V interesting what's around though.

Is anyone using this programme yet and finding it great?

I'm thinking of downloading ... when I'm more awake ...

Have downloaded it and will check it out hopefully
before the big day tomorrow. Not going to post here as
it's OT.
But just to say I will not have proper internet access
until the end of Monday according to Sky.

*Dan's Tech Tips:*

*Radio? Sure! Over Ten Thousand Stations*

*Document Source: Fred's Head from*

www.aph.org <http://www.aph.org/>

*It's no secret that I love internet radio and
streaming music over the web. I am still amazed that
you can click a button and hear radio stations from the
other side of the world.*

*I've found another Windows only application that is
screen reader-friendly and will tune into more than
twelve thousand stations! If you can't find something
to listen to, you're probably not looking hard enough.
The following directions from the AccessContent Blog
will have you listening in minutes!*

http://blog.accesscontent.ca/archive/2010/10/20/online-radio-revisite
d.aspx

*Launching Radio Sure:*

*If you've been successful with the install, the
program should launch automatically afterwards. An
online radio station should start playing. First thing
to do is stop the music and configure a few things. TAB
through the screen until you hear play Button. Press
the SPACEBAR and  the stream will stop.*

*TAB to options and press the SPACEBAR to activate the
option pages.*
*General Tab:*

*Remember, you can move between the tab pages by
pressing CONTROL+TAB.* *A few things you might consider
modifying in the general tab.* *. Whether you want the
program to start with windows. Don't see the advantage
of this, as I'd rather control when it's playing.* *.
Whether you want a stream to start playing when you
launch the program.* *. And my favourite, Global
hotkeys. I would urge you to enable this, as it then
gives you the option of controlling RadioSure from
anywhere. See "Global Hotkey List" at the bottom of
this entry.* *. Minimize the program to the system tray
is handy, as it takes it out of the way. You can summon
it back to the foreground with one of the global
hotkeys listed below.*

*We will skip the Skins tab, as it makes no difference
to screen readers.* *Recording Tab:*

*Yes, you can record the streams with this program. One
thing you might consider changing on this tab:*

*. The recording folder. The default is to put it
within a folder called music under the RadioSure
program. You can point this folder to any folder of
your choice with the unlabelled "browse"
button. You can look around the other options on this
tab at your leisure.* *The Advanced Tab:*

*. You can choose your preferred audio device. Leave
this one alone, unless you are having audio issues, or
prefer to use a specific device.* *. I'd suggest
checking the Always show station in the window title,
so you can easily hear the station name by pressing
INSERT+T withmost screen readers.*

*. I'd uncheck Show pictures related to songs, but
that's just personal preference.*

*Press SPACEBAR on the "OK" button and the setup is
complete.*
*Yay! Let's start listening and finding radio stations.*

*The Main Window:*

*The first area on the program window is the list of
all stations; over 12000 from across the globe. No
non-terrestrial station as of yet, but who knows.*

*Navigate this list with the UP and DOWN ARROWS. PRESS
ENTER to start playing.*

*Volume Control:*

*TABBING brings you to the volume control. It's
independent from the system volume, which means it will
not interfere with the screen reader levels. Use Page
up/Page DOWN for 20 percent increments. Use LEFT and
RIGHT ARROWS for 5 percent increments. And finally, use
UP and DOWN  ARROWS for 3 percent increments.*

*Searches:*

*Another press of the TAB will bring you to the search
area. Simply type a station name, a genre or even radio
call letters and the station list will be populated
with the results. No need to even press ENTER when
done. Press SHIFT+TAB twice to get back to the modified
listing. To get back to the full list of stations,
erase the search term.* *Those are the main features of
Radio Sure and should give you a good base to get
started. All in all, a nifty little program if you like
listening to online radio, but are too lazy to go
surfing the web to find them all.*

*As promised, here are the global hotkeys. They make
using the program even sweeter.*

*. (Shift + Alt + H) toggle hide/show Radio Sure*

*. (Shift + Alt + Number pad Plus) volume down*

*. (Shift + Alt + Number pad Minus) volume up*

*. (Shift + Alt + M) Mute*

*. (Shift + Alt + P) toggle Play/Stop*

*. (Shift + Alt + S) Stop*

*. (Shift + Alt + B) Back*

*. (Shift + Alt + N) Next*

*. (Shift + Alt + R) start/stop Recording.*
