Description
-----------
The ID LOGIC « World Time Clock indicates the current time
in most timezones around the world and takes Summer Time
(DST) automatically into account (both in the Northern- and
Southern-hemisphere). In addition, the clock - which is fully
dynamic - indicates clearly the date division.
A Conference Time function allows you to ask the question
At what LOCAL time should I call city X to reach it at its
time Y? (DST is taken into account, so you must also give the date.)
Five separate multimedia alarms are provided for which are
remembered whenever you reboot Windows. These can be set to
activate (once, hourly, daily, weekly, etc.) either a beep
signal, a WAV file, a voice recording you can make yourself,
a MIDI sequence, an AVI video file or an audio compact disk.
If you have a modem, you can synchronize your system clock/
calendar with the time signal issued by the atomic time
generator of the National Institute of Science and Technology
in Colorado.
Although a large number of cities are already pre-programmed,
you can define and position up to nine custom city labels yourself.
The ID LOGIC World Time Clock made it's first appearance (in
rudimentary form) in the ID LOGIC Shortwave Simulator for Windows
which simulates the shortwave receiver of the (near) future which
will permit the automatic scanning for a station by name, language,
schedule and other attributes. By popular demand, the World Time
Clock was made into a stand-alone application.
The ID LOGIC SW Simulator can be downloaded via the Internet from
the anonymous ftp site ftp.hk.net (shareware/prs/ID_SW.ZIP) or
from our WWW Home Page at http://www.hk.net/~prs
It contains the schedules of the BBC World Service, the VoA,
and most of the other largest international shortwave broadcasters.
ALL SCHEDULES ARE PROVIDED BY THE BROADCASTERS THEMSELVES.

------------------
Very Brief History
------------------
ID LOGIC is a scanning/tuning system which permits the user to
1) automatically identify any tuned-in station
2) scan for a station by station attribute such as format
(e.i. type of music), callsign, language, etc.
PRS started to develop ID LOGIC in 1986. The first product was the
ID LOGIC Module for AM/FM radio receivers for use in North America
(which is today on the N.Am market in several receivers).
We have licensed SONY, MATSUSHITA (Panasonic/Technics),
PIONEER, KENWOOD, ALPINE, SANYO, CLARION, JVC, and others.
An AM/FM ID LOGIC Simulator containing most of the 14,000+ North
American AM/FM stations is available as shareware from the
anonymous ftp server ftp.hk.net (/shareware/prs/ID_NA.ZIP).
In 1993, ID LOGIC was integrated in the Radio Broadcast Data System
(RBDS) standard issued by the National Radio Systems Committee (NRSC)
on January 8, 1993. (This is the U.S. version of the European
RDS standard.)
Since 1992 we have been working with the BBC World Service and the
Voice of America to develop an ID LOGIC version for shortwave receivers.
This informal open consortium has since been joined by many international
broadcasters and we expect it will continue to grow very rapidly.
There, the idea is to permit SW listeners to tune to a station by
pressing at most two buttons (one for the desired broadcaster,
the other for the desired language) to access an in-receiver database
of scheduling data which will be maintained and refreshed by digital
transmissions from the broadcasters themselves.
