broadcast by some FM stations? Also are there any other
devices with this chip in them? Why buy one when you
already have a device that will work? This sounds like
fun. I'll have to see about getting one of these. I
can see one use for this. If you're travelling away
from home, leave one of these set up at home. Then when
you're out of town, you can connect to it and listen to
radio from your hometown and keep up on local news.<br>

build your own radio. I still listen to FM stations.
This looks like a <br>
cool way to make that easier and more flexible. <br>
