Internet Radio - the basics
Before you can use your audio system to listen to broadcasts via the Internet, it is necessary
to have connected it to your computer network using the wireless (WiFi) connection or the
wired Ethernet connection (RJ-45 socket) located on the back of the unit.
There are literally many thousands of radio broadcasts available via the Internet as well as
'Podcasts'. Your audio system provides several ways of searching for broadcasts in order
to make finding and choosing them easier. Once you have found the radio stations that you
like, you may either store them as presets within the audio system, or add them to a list of
your favourite stations which your audio system can access. The audio system allows you to
store up to 10 presets and as many favourites as you like.
You may search for an Internet radio station by Location. If you know the name of the station
and the country from which a station is broadcast this may be the easiest method to find a
station. It is also a great way to experience radio from other parts of the world.
You may also search for an Internet radio station by Genre. If you prefer a particular type
of music, Blues for example, you may search for a radio station that broadcasts that type of
music, and you can choose from a list of Blues radio stations regardless of location, or taking
location into account.
If you know part of the name of an Internet radio station, you can enter it into the audio system
and it will search for stations that match that name. This can be helpful if you are unsure of
the location or genre of a particular station.
The Stream 67 audio system connects to a radio station database which serves many users in
many countries. This means that there is a very wide range of programme content available.
You can also search for stations which have been recently added to those available (new
stations) or you can search for the most popular.
