Yes: I have a wifi internet radio. Unfortunately, it is not accessible for the
blind. The only way I use it is having sighted help to add the stations to the
presets. There are several different brands of radios. The one I am using can
be bought from C Crane radio whose url is:
www.ccradio.com
It has 99 presets. You have to use a remote control to select the stations. The
data base where it gets its stations is Reciva radio,
www.reciva.com.
Good luck.

Boy, there have been some fantastic suggestions, and all new to me, for sure.
Thank you.
Can I ask, does anyone use one of these stand alone WiFI Internet Radios at
all?
I was at a relative’s house and they were so proud of theirs.
They had the free Pandora subscription it came with.
Of course, it was just a while and a couple buttons and I guess some display
on the thing.
But I wondered if this would be something I might wish to try and use.
I pretty much have been using an FM transmitter connected to my headphone
jack on my pc to broadcast to any radio within range at the specified frequency.
But I was wondering if I used one of those stand alone wifi radios, if it is
possible to use the pc software of the radio with JAWS to set up the
frequencies on it.
If anyone has tried this at all, I would appreciate any advice either on list
or off. I am at 1803 ohio at q dot com.
I am looking to have a household option to streaming, and not just be tied to
my desk to be streaming content, is what I am getting at.
Thanks.
Rik
