Billy alerted me to Pandora. Very cool. You just give it an indication of the kind of music you'd like to listen to. They do the rest. I started out with Creedance Clearwater Revival, and Pandora proceeded to send me a stream of sort-of similar rock. Streaming audio through the web. And it is apparently all legal (you listen to a commercial every once in a while). This is great for background music in the shack. After all, you can only listen to so much SolderSmoke, and 75 meter SSB chatter is not good for you. I'm not sure if it is available outside the USA. I hope it is.

Far out, man.
ReplyDeleteI tried "Born To Be Mild" and "Rosin Smoke Gets In Your Eyes"; no luck. Hmmmmmm....."Maxwell's Silver Solder Sucker"? "Little GDO"?
Or how about the popular (My baby WSPRs in my ear.....Mmm, Mmm) "Sweet Nuthin's". Nope.
Bummer.
