[Electronics-talk] setting radios

[Snow White Dove]

Yeah, I kind of thought that's what she meant.
But I haven't exactly had the best luck with that either. I know it's ridiculous isn't it, the simplest thing like a radio.
I guess that's why just had to deal with the iPhone stuff. Because it's just simpler to deal with. And I know what I'm getting.
And unfortunately. I just we decided world works sometimes.

Z I know, it's not an excuse. It's just the way it is.
We have to try to fight somehow to make things more accessible. Even if it is something simple like a radio.
I certainly don't have 300 and some odd dollars to spend on a book sense. Unfortunately that's how much that kind of stuff costs.

>> Hi all,
>> Setting up the radio station you want is with buttons on most radios; in the past, you had a tuner knob to set stations and no digital way to program in stations.

>> Its important to see the station to know where you are.
>> Are there talking radios? I know the ipods read you the station frequency you’re at, but other than that, I can’t think of anything accessible.
>> 
>> How do you find the stations you want? Just listen? Ocasionally with good light, I can see the number. Otherwise, I have to listen and guess what station I’m at based on the music played and number of times I’ve pressed a button. For instance if I’m at 99.5 and wish to go to 98.7, I know I don’t have to press the buttons much to get there, but if I wanted to tune to 88.5, I have a long way to go.

>> For music, I love cds! I find them most accessible as you simply put in your cd and press buttons to go to the track you desire or play it on the pc with something like windows media player, and still select your track or listen straight through.
>> Old fashioned, but I find its most accessible except for the ipod route. Most music services such as rhapsody are not very accessible. Oh, nor is the hd radio real accessible either. So cds, IMO, are one of the best options.
