At that time, Griffin claimed: “ can record audio Internet streams, either scheduled or real-time, from any streaming audio application.” That would be a nice feature, but honestly, it doesn’t seem to be one that’s integral to the product. There’s one feature, promised for the RadioShark way back when, that doesn’t exist in the version I’ve been using. And if Mac users check the Accumulates When Closed preference (an option not available in the Windows version of the RadioShark software), RadioShark will even continue to record the live radio buffer while it’s closed. This means you can quit out of RadioShark and the program will still grab your scheduled recordings. RadioShark is actually two different applications - the interface application and a background server application. It might be a bit annoying (and no doubt Griffin will be updating the software to fix these bugs, now that RadioShark is in the world), but despite the annoyances I was able to work around them and schedule recordings easily. You can’t choose AM or PM for any time, so you must instead enter in the hour in 24-hour notation and watch as your PM times are converted - but if you do it a second time, they get converted backward. Although RadioShark can display time in either 12-hour or 24-hour clock mode, the Event Details window is a mixed metaphor and a little buggy. ![]() Scheduling a recording with RadioShark is fairly straightforward, although not as easy or as elegant as it could be. On the right, the Sched button opens up a window that lets you set up or play back scheduled recordings EQ lets you process the radio sound iTunes-style with an equalizer, and TS slides out a drawer below the main window containing “time-shifting” playback features. ![]() On the left, the Band button lets you switch between AM and FM the Seek button advances the frequency until it finds a strong signal and the Rec button automatically begins recording what you’re listening to. There are three buttons on either side of the “dial,” and a volume slider right below it. A slider along the top lets you change frequencies - there doesn’t seem to be a way to change frequencies by typing in a number. The main RadioShark application interface is a metallic, iTunes-style window.
