Power Radio is FM player with RDS decoding for VGA and WVGA devices. 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

Usage:

After setup when started for the first time, PowerRadio will scan the whole band for stations, storing them to the available preset buttons.

manual scan: long-press "scan" button to get context menu with various options preset buttons: long-press a button to get context menu with options for store, delete, rename
ear/spk: switch between earphones and speaker
mute/unmute: self explanatory
blend: improves stereo reception and/or expands stereo base
stereo: switch between mono/stereo

All settings are saved in PowerRadio.ini.

ToDo list (in no specific order):

- add waitcursors on startup/exit
- fix volume bug on start
- allow user defined scan sensitivity
- check "replaces font" bug
- more preset buttons
- evaluate country settings
- integrate with external audio recording app
- store station names during scan
- evaluate RDS checkwords
- stereo indicator derived from pilot signal
- landscape support
- skinning support
