I'd like to say that this is an excellent way to re-purpose an old device. I have an old Windows Phone charging up right now to dedicate this to. I like the idea of a virtual frequency, but it seems a little confusing since it currently appears to be randomly assigned. Perhaps adding a decimal point to separate location and service could make it easier to remember a frequency. Using a structure based on country calling codes could potentially allow users to identify or learn the origin of a specific virtual frequency [1]. Example: 679.001 would be a station in Fiji; 353.001 would be a station in Ireland; 206.001 would be a station in Washington State in the USA.

Thank you for your comment, nice to hear that, wondering if the Windows Phone browser is capable of runing it properly? Would you mind letting me know if it works fine once you get a chance to set it up? Thank you! In the process of designing it, this idea came up as well, however I ultimately decided against it because on a closer look I realized it will be an issue, for one some countries have only 2 digits while others 3, then for a country like US with many stations the number will end up even longer than what we have now. It was a system I liked also yet upon implementation things became clear that are not workable and will cause a lot of headache programming wise. Another system that also came up in the procees is using the 2 letter country code plus station number, so FJ001 and so on. Will have to see how the people receive the current setup and take it from there.

  The power button on radioside didn't seem to work on the Windows Phone browser, so I haven't had any success with it yet.
