RADIO
Written by: Ian Phillips
RADIO is living proof that data
bases don't have to be boring to be
functional. Ian Phillips has locked
on to a unique property of his
subject matter to make his data base
interesting visually as well as
useful.
RADIO is a filing program for those
who listen to more than one AM radio
station. The program can store up
to 1000 different American and
Canadian AM radio stations.
Two menus operate this program.
The first searches for a STATION, a
CITY, a FREQUENCY, or a
CLASSIFICATION. The program will
automatically list any radio stations
matching the data you entered.
The second menu, or the ALTERNATE
MENU, allows you to enter new radio
stations. You can also remove any of
the stations you don't want listed.
It is also through the ALTERNATE MENU
that you exit the program. Make sure
you leave the disk in the drive while
adding or removing radio stations as
RADIO needs to access the file named
AMSTAT. To get to the ALTERNATE MENU
press the 'A' key.
Here are few points of interest for
those who don't know:
Canadian stations generally begin
with the letter C and a few begin with
V. One American station begins with V
while the rest begin with A, K, or W.
One more note--CLASSIFICATION allows
you to classify the stations. In the
over 150 stations already on file,
there are classifications such as NBC,
CBC, ABC, ROCK, OLDIES, COUNTRY,
LARRY KING, TALKNET, and even
FRENCH and SPANISH. How you want to
classify the stations is really up to
you!
