Hello, I am posting this tip for those who may not be very familiar with computers, or simply didn’t know.
You can set up a launch icon on your PC desktop that will directly play the RGW On Air signal.
This is particularly handy to allow you to change browser pages on the internet without dropping the station signal. No more ooops I just clicked something and changed pages so the media player stopped.
Tim has already placed a widget on the Rgw website that works great to listen to radio player…but this utilizes your existing media player.
5 ‘easy’ steps to set up.

-Note: this is for PC not Mac and Non-Dial Up-

(I prefer using winamp. winamp has free full version from their website www.winamp.com download it first before proceeding)

1. Rt click your desktop (somewhere in center screen) and choose new>shortcut
2. Rt click and ‘copy shortcut’ from list below:

windows media player-
listen.radiogetswild.com/radio.asx
real player-
listen.radiogetswild.com/radio.ram
winamp -
listen.radiogetswild.com/radio.pls

paste the shortcut into the pop up wizard screen.

3. click on ‘next’
4. type a name such as Listen to RGW
5. click ‘finish’
Now the icon is on your desktop you can drag it to where you want and double click to open the RGW
when you want, which frees up your browser window to surf without dropping the station signal.

also, I should point out that media player’s file extentions can be defaulted to play all audio files , so if
you have another open up…it has probably been set up as a default player. It can be easily changed.

Hope this was helpful. I always use this method and have been satisfied.
