Is
it in Stereo? |
Yes - all WiFi is in stereo |
Do I need a computer? |
No - A WiFi radio easily decodes the
audio signal you seek and translates
it into clear noiseless listening. |
Where does a WiFi Signal come
from? |
WiFi signals are created when someone
connects a wireless modem or router to
their internet connection. Modems and
routers are necessary to connect a computer
to the internet. |
How do I Hook it Up? |
There is a simple four step process.
- Plug it in.
- Turn it on.
- Seek a WiFi Signal
- Listen and enjoy.

Is it stealing to use
someone elses WiFi signal? |
If you have permission
- it is not stealing. You have implied
permission when visiting a business
that provides free WiFi. While WiFi
signals are in the air - they are not
considered public domain in most areas. We
recommend that you ask a neighbor's
or business's permission before using
their signal. Most states have developed
laws to prevent malicious attempts
to use WiFi signals. These laws are
molded towards criminals, but may affect
your use of a signal too. You can check
your state's laws at the National Conference of
State Legislatures web site. |
How far does a signal
go? |
Signal
distance is changing. While the basic
system will transmit
200-feet, most
of the new systems transmit 5-times
that distance. Also, be aware that
since the CC WiFi radio is a digital
device, it may cause some interference
to AM broadcasts on standard radios
that are in close proximity.

Can I get WiFi radio
without a WiFi signal? |
No - there must be a WiFi signal in
your vicinity for a WiFi radio to work. |
How does a little radio
decode internet radio? |
When anyone puts his show out on the
internet, their signal carries within
it the information that's required to
decode it. It is easy for a WiFi radio
to identify these signals, gleen them
out, and decode the radio program into
a clear digital signal. |
Why do I recommend C.Crane
WiFi radios? |
I
recommend the C Crane WiFi radio because
it's inexpensive, easy-to-use, and
it allows listeners
to hear the program anywhere in the world. So
now, you'll now have two options. You
can listen to the broadcast on your AM
radio, as you have done in the past,
OR, you can listen on the internet,
even if you don't have a computer. Even
if you are within WNJC's and WFYL's
broadcast range, you may still want
to listen via the internet to enjoy
the music in crystal-clear stereo. |
