This is what I do. First, the Radio Stations Manager (RSM) needs to be installed in the SH4 root directory, same as JSGME. Create a shortcut for RSM for your desktop.

Next, D/L whatever Radio Station you want to a seperate folder for all your mods. I have a folder named SH41.5 Mods

.

The next thing I do is to create a seperate folder for each RS I have. If you have BBC, create a folder and name it BBC. If you have CBS, create a folder and name it CBS, ect..

The next thing is to extract (unzip) the RS files to their appropriate folders. For example, if I want BBC, I'll find the BBC Radio Mod in my SH41.5 Mods folder, and extract the files to the BBC folder that I created. Still with me?

After the files are extracted to their seperate folders, open the folder. Let's take BBC for example. Open the BBC folder that you created, which now contains the BBC files you unzipped there. Keep opening each folder that comes up: Data, Sound, Radio, until you get to the BBC folder. Copy this folder, and paste it in the Radio folder in your SH4 directory (where Radio Washington is)

Each RS comes with a readme, which contains the "radio ini" info. This is the antenna, frequency, ect.. I manually copy this info to a piece of paper. I do this for each station.

After each station is installed in the Root folder, open up RSM via the shortcut you made. Read the RSM readme, as it explains very well what to do. Click the import button on the RSM. Your stations should show up. Highlite whatever station you want. A window is provided to input all the ini info.When done, click Apply and move on to the next. Make sure the frequencies are at least ten numbers apart, alter them if need be. That should be it. I know it may be a roundabout way of doing things , and if there's an easier way I'm all ears. But that's how I do it, and everything works great!

Hope I've been of some help.
