Can you listen to radio on a cell phone without a Receiver?
Question by mantas1111000 mantas1111000: Can you listen to radio on a cell phone without a Receiver?
I need to travel to Vilnius, but I don’t have a portable radio. Because the entire bus will probably be filled with hopeless nerds/engineers, I want to listen to radio, when we travel. But my phone doesn’t have an FM Receiver.
The thing is, the radio is lithuanian, and those, which broadcast through the Internet, don’t stream that station.
Any way to listen to FM radio on a Sony Ericsson S500i?

Answer by Common Sense
No. Try a Walkman. They’re dirt cheap.

You can also just throw some files on a USB thumb drive and insert it directly in the front panel USB input.
iPod Made Easy
It’s easy! Simply plug your iPod directly into the unit using the optional CD-IU50 iPod cable, and you are ready to rock and roll. Listening to an artist that you just can’t get enough of? Now you can hold the “List” button down and it will pop up folders containing that specific artist, album, or genre. You can also have your passenger control your music directly from the iPod.

Have you ever heard a great song on the radio, but couldn’t remember what it was called or who sang it when you went to go look for it later? Now you don’t have to worry about missing out on great music. iTunes Tagging gives you the power to “tag” all of your favorite songs without having to scramble for a piece of scrap paper in the car, then later preview or purchase music at iTunes Music Store.
Bring Your Music to Life with Advanced Sound Retriever
This year you can hear the detail, warmth, and clarity the way the artist intended it, from all of the highly compressed MP3, WMA and AAC files playing on your CD player. By restoring data that tends to get lost in the digital compression process, we can make your music sound close to CD quality.
Supertuner IIID AM/FM Tuner
Pioneer’s legendary Supertuner IIID combines the best of digital and analog tuner technologies to reduce distortion to bring you exceptional FM and AM performance. If you live in an area where reception is weak, you’ll hear a big improvement in signal strength. And when you’re near tall buildings, Supertuner IIID reduces the effect of multi-path noise, which occurs when the signal is reflecting off of the buildings.
MOSFET 50W x4 Amplifier for the Power Hungry
Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, delivering power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. And that doesn’t just mean a boost in volume: it means that your music will be cleaner at higher volumes because you’re not pushing the limits of the amplification circuit. Clean, efficient power that will rock your vehicle.
The DEH-5200HD is also ready for expansion, with two sets of 2V RCA preamp outputs (front, rear/subwoofer) for system expansion with external amps/speakers, and a two-way crossover with separate high and low pass settings.

I want an Internet Radio receiver that isn’t depend ant on a computer for Internet Radio listening.Any advice?
Question by “Kh a a a a a n n” ! !: I want an Internet Radio receiver that isn’t depend ant on a computer for Internet Radio listening.Any advice?
I would like to buy a stand alone Internet Radio receiver. I know they make them. They receive Internet Radio but they do not require the use of a PC.
I feel this would be the best thing as I have looked at Satalite Radio systems and they don’t have certain stations I want, and they also have subscription fees. Internet Radio would not have fees for listening to various stations. You could get any station that is available on the Internet.
Any advice on where to look for one of these? Which one should I get?
Best answer:
Answer by weeder
The only device I can think of does NOT require a computer but it does require a network. No player is going to pick up Internet radio without some type of internet connection. It also comes programmed for over 1000 internet radio stations.

How do you make a FM radio receiver into one that can pick up Air Traffic communications?
Question by Jesse West: How do you make a FM radio receiver into one that can pick up Air Traffic communications?
I would like to make a normal FM radio into a radio that can hear air traffic, VHF, also, with the design that you give, could you tell me how far away from an airport you could be to hear things good?
Best answer:
Answer by trent0123
It would be extremely difficult to alter an existing radio because all the circuitry is made for normal FM frequencies.
You would have better results by looking up a circuit for the shortwave bands you want to receive and building it from scratch. You can then build the right size antenna you need and you will pick up the communication many miles from the airport.
If you know how to build circuits on printed circuit boards you should be able to make your own receiver.
There is lots of info online about basic and advanced electronics on this subject.
You can also look for someone selling a multiband shortwave radio.
