rcs and rds
is anyone running rcs master control (v14) that is also running the rds
system? i'm interested in getting the data (song title and artist) to the rds box via the serial port so it can be transmitted to the new style radios. rcs says the only way they do it is via xml on a tcp port and address, which is not an option since the rds box doesn't have an ethernet port on it. anyone have a program that polls for the broadcast.asc file and then transmits it to the rds box via the serial port? i can't believe that this tiny station a few miles from nowhere in colorado is the only one trying to do this... any ideas? thanks in advance, michael soscc(at)krai.com or junque(at)soscc.biz |

Worth enquiring about it. RDS and Radiotext has been used for many years over here so it might be the software hasn't made it over the pond yet. Simon |
