S5 in the noise with Paul Simon.  Good sound on the xmtr though.

Pancakes and sausage links,  strong black coffee.  
Still going good at 12:35, static comes up every few seconds and tries to swamp them but Boombox is sailing above the waves.

12:55 the good ship Boombox is beginning to founder in the rising daytime static.
13:00 off abruptly.
 Thanks for the show.  Went great with breakfast.

Software / Re: Shortwave Broadcast Schedules Beta 0.0.1b3

« on: September 23, 2013, 2116 UTC »

Seems to be working well on Windows/SdrDx/NetSDR with the latest update (0.0.1b4).

 Couple questions / suggestions-
 

• Which database is it using? (eibi?)
• How will the updates occur with the next shortwave schedule? Will we have to re-download the folder or will it query EIBI online in the background.
• I assume the entire shortwave database is stored locally in one of the Dll's?  Would it be easy to edit it? (love to take out a bunch of the crap stations I don't listen to to reduce the clutter [i.e. mil coms, Volmet]
• It would be nice to coordinate with Ben to have a button on SdrDx to launch the program (would probably have to be loaded in specific location in the SdrDx program folder)
• It would be nice to have an icon ( .ico ) associated with it to use on the shortcut I created for the link
• Its "pushing" info to the radio by being able to change frequency, can it "pull" info too? I ask because if it could read what freq you are currently on, and know the time it is, it could give a constant read out of what freq you are on and what station you are listening to. (assuming the freq is in the database)  That would be a very nice feature. Tune to a frequency and have it display what the station is.   Hey! I guess it already does this, Nice!

 Thanks for the program, I realize its still in the development stage but it works well.
