This won't really help when you're sniffing carbon monoxide on the beltway, but if you're willing to sacrifice a bit of audio fidelity, grab a copy of the Xing StreamWorks program from http://www.xingtech.com and start listening to KPIG. KPIG has one of the best formats I've heard in ages. It's somewhat ecclectic, but with a bent toward blues and rock. There's definetly no such thing as top 40 or heavy rotation on KPIG. KPIG, may be physically located in Santa Cruz, CA--but if you can't find what you want on the DC dial it's worth checking out if you've got a SLIP/PPP connection, a 14.4 or 28.8 modem and a PC running Windows with a 16-bit sound card. -- +--------------------+----------------------------+--------------------------+ | Michael Faurot | mfaurot@phzzzt.atww.org | I don't like | | ------- ------ | | lima beans!! | +--------------------+----------------------------+--------------------------+
