OK - thanks - I'll do that.
As for the time zone thing - no problem - I was just pointing out a difference in the settings menu that I was surprised to find. No doubt there are likely others.
Hello Don,
Thank you for posting on our Forum. Acouple things, first Reciva controls the software on our Livio Radio's. They program all of the functionality. I would recommend that you suggest that to them on their site. As far as the time zone issue i would recommend that you make sure your firmware is up to date. You can check that in the SETTINGS menu. If not then you can adjust the time in the CLOCK options in the SETTINGS menu. Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you for choosing Livio Radio.
Any chance of getting Customizable Station and Pod casting Streams added to the Pandora version. Also - there is no place to set the time zone in the NPR version like there is in the Pandora.
