Abstract

My innovative idea to create, program and provide manufactured boomboxes/car stereos with capabilities to record, play, pause, rewind, fast forward and save live radio feeds.

Claims

1. I claim controlling live radio feeds:

with manufactured as well as aftermarket vehicle stereos/boom boxes, alarm clock radios, mobile and portable MP3 devices that have and will have memory capacity and the necessary components including capabilities consisting of record, play, pause, rewind, fast forward and save live radio feeds and broadcasts;

record any part of a live radio feed at will;

pause live radio for any reason;

if on a set channel that was interrupted you can rewind as far back as thirty minutes;

to be brought back up to speed you can also fast forward that same channel or simply select the live radio button that I also claim;

which will take you back to what is currently on that radio show/station.

I claim the ability to pre-program the radio to automatically record/save live feeds on a particular station with or without pre-selected time intervals without being in the car, in front of the boombox or alarm clock.

I claim options on a menu screen to pull up previously recorded radio shows located (in groupings folder or recordings) on your car stereo, boombox, or alarm clock radio of your selected channels which comprises of your desired radio segments.

I claim recorded feeds stay saved in the radios memory of your car, boombox, or alarm docks database for up to thirty days regardless of technology used to produce feature, with the option to extend or delete what was recorded/saved entirely.

I claim the operation of a remote control device that comes with any car stereo, boombox, or alarm clock to have the same control capabilities to pause, play, record, fast forward, rewind or pull up previously recorded live radio feeds;

without having to do so on the screen of either radio type.

I claim the live radio button installment on any car stereo, boombox, alarm clock radio, mobile app on portable device and remote;

controlling either radio type.

I claim if receiving an incoming call through Bluetooth through your vehicle'"'"'s speakers, the option to be asked if you would like to pause or record the live radio feed in process, i.e. accept/decline call options display on the screen for you to select before you accept the incoming call.

I claim if desiring to make an outgoing call through your vehicle'"'"'s Bluetooth device you will have the ability to pause or set the radio feed to be recorded until you have completed your call;

up to thirty minutes.

I claim the capabilities for all vehicle stereos;

including aftermarket of any kind, plug-in boom boxes, and alarm clock radios to record, pause, rewind, fast forward, and play live radio feeds at will;

no matter their make, model, manufacturing brand and/or regardless if feeds are AM, FM, or XM-HD.

I claim the capabilities for all cellular/mobile and MP3 devices to record, pause, rewind, fast forward live radio feeds to then play them back regardless of the devices make, model or manufacturing brand no matter if feeds received are on/through an “

App”

or on AM, FM, or XM-HD radio feeds.

I claim the capabilities for a vehicle'"'"'s stereo system to sync;

using Wi-Fi with home computers, and any other capable radio devices with “

LRT”

;

that have the ability to play live radio feeds. This claim will enable a command to be given such as;

pause or record to a live radio feed while in the vehicle, thereafter when exiting the car to enter the home;

the vehicles system compatibility with its Wi-Fi synced through the Wi-Fi in the home to home stationed devices, which will allow one to press play on the proper radio device(s) in the home in which you can tune into the same radio station which was playing in the vehicle but paused, to resume where left off.

I claim the capability for the sounding alarm on an alarm clock radio to play a song as an option that was recorded previously using the very same alarm clock touch screen radio or remote device.

I claim the capabilities for radios and remote controls that are manufactured with them to execute the commands mentioned above to control/transform live radio feeds from car stereos, boom box stereos, and alarm clock radios as well as the addition of the record and live radio buttons on each of them.
