Ray:

Is that a rhetorical question or do you really want an answer? If the
latter, how are any of us to know? (smile)

Ah yes, now you mention the Spark radios, I recall them now.  Tell me,
honestly.  AS you will doubtless recall, we have been burned twice now with
the promise of talking HD radios that lasted only a short while and fell
through the floor.  I just happen to have the INsignia radio which I got
from Best Buy about half a year before that effort came to nothing also.
That radio still works, but, I"m happy to see the Spark effort still lasting
so far.  What I wish to know from the group is this.  Will the third time be
the charm:  or, are we again to be burned?

Thanks.


Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray,

Still a very happy Mac, Verizon Wireless iPhone6+ and Apple TV user!

models that talk.  They do not give you the data that is on the screen like
song titles, but they do give you frequency and which buttons you have
pressed.  I think the cheapest model is about $60 and is available through
amazon.  It is a portable and comes with an AC adapor and will run on 3
double A batteries.
