Re: Revo review?

Yes, reception is still iffy in certain areas. and for some reason, it's gotten worse over the past few weeks (bun, you experiencing this too?)

it's weird, but i'm getting better reception in East coast area...
however, places like yishun, sembawang, where i used to get near-perfect reception... are now showing weak signals.
i hope mediacorp will do something abt it...
make it the PERFECT radio as they claimed!

littleblackalfa,

thanks for the input, btw do you know if they are going to bring in the IR remote control next? Also the extension antenna cable so i can route the antenna to the rear windscreen?

btw, do you have access to the technical manuals for this product? i.e. can i tap into some pcb points to see what they are writing to the lcd and then translate that and display that on my comp?

of late, i heard reception for the FM in certain parts is also bad.... i wonder why...

cheers!

Re: Revo review?

you try and find more space on the REVO to add the buttons? I DIY for you...

Eh.... I got an idea to add more station preset but don't know whether they want to revise the software to do it. If you want to feedback to them, I'll tell you my idea.

I can try to get the manuals for you. Which touch screen are you going to pair this with?

There's no extension cable for the antenna as of yet, and I wouldn't recommend putting the antenna on the rear because of the integrated FM antenna on the demister.

P.S. I already have the remotes. Haven't put them on sale yet though... not sure about the interest level.

littleblackalfa,

i've dropped you a PM with me contact, let's talk about the possible touchscreen integration...
maybe if can integrate then can add more presets.... or automatic programming... i.e. different time of day different channel... (now I'm dreaming...)

cheers!
