Griffin radioSHARK Widget 1.0.1

radioSHARK Widget is a Dashboard widget that gives you the basic AM/FM radio control functions for your radioSHARK hardware without requiring you to use the full application itself.

The radio SHARK adds an AM/FM radio to any Mac or PC — but that’s just the beginning.

The radio SHARK can record any AM or FM radio broadcast in real time. You can also program it to record a scheduled show, or to ‘pause’ live radio so you can return right where you left off moments or even hours before (See ‘What is Time-Shift Recording?’ sidebar above).

radio SHARK includes a full-featured application that controls all radio and recording functions. Favorite station presets can be set with the click of a mouse, and new stations can be scanned and tuned with ease. The application is also where you program Time-Shift Recording, either to take a break without missing any of a show or to record your favorite broadcast to listen to later.

The radio SHARK connects to and is powered by USB. The fin-shaped device acts as an antenna and can be positioned for best reception and recording. Any recorded broadcast can be transferred to an iPod or any other AIFF-compatible digital music player to replay on the go.

New in version 1.0.1:
Now a Universal Binary.

System requirements:
Mac OS X 10.4 or later,
Griffin radioSHARK.

System Support:
PPC/Intel

Free
