Introducing Internet radio
Before you can use your radio to listen to broadcasts via the internet, it is
necessary to have already connected your radio to your computer network
using either the WiFi connection or the wired Ethernet connection (RJ-45
socket) on the back of the radio. Please see page 9 for details.
There are literally many thousands of broadcasts available via the internet.
Your radio provides several ways of searching for broadcasts in order to
make finding and choosing broadcasts easier. Once you have found radio
stations which you like, you may either store them as presets within the
radio, or add them to a list of your favourite stations which your radio can
access. The number of presets is limited (there are five preset buttons on
the radio), but you can store 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 see a list of 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 radio 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 WM-202 radio 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.
