Also, it says that tunes may be added to the station folder if so desired. Will it just play tunes randomly until an "event" happens? One more question...if you desire to change the frequency, do you just change the ini file to the desired frequency ? In this case, I first tried the default and the frequency interfered with the washington station. When I changed it to the other option (530 I think) it found the station, but it took about 3 minutes to get there.  Geez that's alot of static ! AND, as I said, after locatiing the station, nothing played. It was around 3:00 in the morning so I thought maybe they went off air! :rotfl:
Thanks in advance for a reply.

You have to add music to the station or you won't hear anything until a scripted event is set to play. And yes, music in the radio stations does play randomly.
Frequencies are set in the ini. The "generic" interfers with Washington because when I first created KGMB I had changed Washington, forgot the stock used 22, and forgot to fix that in the latest version. Sorry. If you want it earlier than the real frequency, just redo it to a number ten or so away from any other station.
Yes it does take awhile to get to the station using the real frequencey, but the advantage is it won't interfer with any other station as no one else is using frequencies that high. To have it take less time, just use the time compression. That's what I do.

Ah Ha ! Doh! I didn't think of using time compression. Thanks Fred ! BTW, I think you may want to amend some info. When I extracted the files to the station folder, all the sound files remained inside the Events folder. Took me a little while to figure out, but I had to cut and paste from the Events folder to the station folder, in this case the KGMB folder. Thanks for all the great sounds Fred, Today I just listened to the 1942 music at work. It was way before my time, but I love the jazz and swing stuff.
One more question comes to mind....It seems I remember reading something about events and the clipboard. Is that to say that when an event happens, the clipboard notifies you and you can tune to the radio to get the scoop?
