NEWSCAST Added
Posted on April 10, 2006
Well, I decided that I needed some NEWS on my micro station and NPR fit the bill.
They provide hourly updates for IPOD users. They usually introduce it by thanking you for downloading and then run one commercial. The ‘cast runs 5 minutes.
The news is national and international and very good quality. Now I just have to figure out how to automatically delete the file after it’s played.

Next I need to find a good audio source for weather as I don’t have time to record hourly weather updates. I’m using Weather Watcher with ZaraRadio and can insert current Time/Temp/Humidity but that’s not a forecast.
I’ve tried some of the TEXT to VOICE synthisizer programs but they’re just not ready for prime time yet.
