    NEW GADGETS PUT ROCK-IT RADIO ON YOUR FM
    RADIO.

    Well actually it will put any internet Radio Station on your FM
    Radio at home -- But we are hoping that if you purchase one
    you will use it for Rock-it Radio.
    What is it?  We have found a couple of electronic low power
    FM transmitters that hook up to your computer and rebroadcasts whatever your computer is playing and rebroadcasts it on a choice of frequencies on your home FM Radio.  These items make it  nice to be able to tune into your favorite Internet Radio Station i.e. Rock-it Radio :)  And not have to be stuck in front of your computer all the time to listen. 
    Hook up on both these items we discovered is quite simple -
    One hooks up to your usb port on your computer and the other
    simply hooks up to your microphone hook up on your computer.
    Select a clear frequency on your FM dial on the transmitter and plug it in and then you can tune into any audio from your computer thruout your house on an FM Radio. 
    We have placed a couple of links for these items -- towards the
    middle of our main webpage at:  http://www.rockitradio.net  
    And also towards the bottom of our how to tune us in page at:
    http://www.rockitradio.net/tunein.html   - there you will also find
    special instructions to increase the range of one of the items at least by 3 fold.

    Archives page reminder

    Remember, if the show that you want to hear is getting close to the bottom of the list of radio shows, you should tune in as soon as you can. These shows to have a high audio quality require a lot of internet bandwidth and memory. And currently we can only afford the 16 latest shows online here at Rock-it Radio.  So, when a new show is put online it knocks the oldest one off the Rock-it Radio archives page.  Usually a show will at least last 10 to 12 days, once it is placed in the archives.
