Why PowerRadio?
The built-im FM player – at least on HTC HD – misses many features i’d like to have in a FM radio. PowerRadio delivers many data available via RDS which would otherwise be invisible to the listener. Here are just a few examples:
- Radiotext: contains information broadcast by the respective station. What you get here totally depens on the broadcaster. You might see title and interpret, call-in numbers, SMS trafficservice numbers, URL’s etc.
- traffic announcements
- program type
- coverage area
- date, time, timezone
- various status flags
     

Upcoming features / fixes
- evaluate RDS checkwords next release
- optional PDA time sync when RDS time info arrives next release
- 50 kHz step tuning investigating
- save/restore presets soon
- number of preset banks adjustable via GUI, expands automatically during scan if necessary soon
- process alternate frequency list soon
- check duplicate stations based on AF later
- rearrange presets later
- landscape support later
- integrate with external audio recording app subject to investigation

Discontinued features / research / approach
- stereo indicator derived from pilot signal
not possible, seems to be not supported by FMSAPI.DLL
- support for QVGA, WQVGA, or others smaller than 640 x 480 px
sorry folks, this software needs plenty of room on the screen.
