I’ve always been a radio fan. I recall listening late into the night on a tiny AM radio when I was a kid. During the recent blackout on Oahu, indeed all blackouts here. I take a radio to UH Baseball games. And I’m a fan of public radio.
These days I don’t generally take a radio with me everywhere I go anymore though. I carry an iPhone and I’ve enough other stuff in my pocket I don’t need yet another device. Mostly it’s been okay, I can listen to my music on the iPhone and listen to NPR podcasts. At work there’s so much computer equipment around it makes listening to the radio problematic at best.
Now I’ve got a solution.
I’ve been a fan of the Weather Underground weather site for quite some time. I use it on my desktops, laptops, and my iPhone.
Now they’ve released WunderRadio. It’s a $6 app that let’s me listen to some 20,000+ radio stations streaming on my iPhone. Excellent. I’m hoping it’ll work just fine at UH baseball saving me the trouble of carrying two devices. We’ll see soon enough.
