NRANEWS.COM

     This is the premier internet gun news show in the nation. Brought to you via the internet from 9PM to 12PM every week day by the NRA, Cam Edwards host a show that brings you news of what is happening on local, state, national and even international level. They interview people from both sides of the issues and you get to call in or send in "LTBs" or "Live Talk Backs". They even have a daily poll question. Even if you can not catch the show live, they record it so you can always visit the web site, Click on the "If you missed the last show, CLICK here to see it now." button and the show will play and you can pause it if you want.  Tune in, you might even catch me when I call in.

Don't or Can't be tied down to your computer for 3 hours to see the show?

C. Crane FM Transmitter     I have my computer plugged into a FM Transmitter made by C. Crane Company. It cost about $70, ( you can get an orpan for about $10 less,) but I can plug it into my computer and then send streaming audio to my pocket radio. (Sangean DT-110 Digital AM/FM Pocket Radio for $50, (it turns off automatically after 1 1/2 hours,) also available at C. Crane Company, or a Sony SRF-M37V Sony SRF-M37V available for $30.)
     The range of the Transmitter is not great but it is good enough to cover most of a house. (If you call the company they can tell you how to extend the range a little.) You can set the FM transmitter to any FM frequency between 88-108 MHz.so you can avoid interference from a local station. I can be doing the dishes, cutting the grass or reloading and not miss a moment of the show.
     UPDATE 7/06: The DT-110, (uses two AAAs,) is not on their website but you can still do a google search and find it. Sangean has several new radios that look like they are about the same size like the DT120V that looks like the replacement to the DT-110 and they have several others like the DT-180V that also has TV audio (channels 2-13). For some reason SANGEAN does not have all of their pocket radios on their website.
