1. A computer-implemented method to allow a remote computer user to listen to teams in a race event, the method comprising:
- receiving audio signals at a server from a plurality of audio sources at the race event when audio signals from at least two different audio sources occur at the same time;
transmitting information related to at least some of the audio signals to a remote computer remote from the server via a network;
assigning different priority values to at least two different audio sources from the race event to be heard as selected from indications by remote computer user; and
playing the audio signals from the race event using the remote computer and the transmitted information as a function of the priority values when audio signals from at least two different audio sources occur at the same time, wherein the step of playing includes playing audio signals as a function of a position of a team in the race.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method and system allows a remote computer user to listen to teams in a race event. The method includes receiving audio signals from a plurality of audio sources at the race event; transmitting at least some of the audio signals to a remote computer; and filtering the audio signals as a function of the source of at least some of the audio signals so that at least some of the audio signals are not played by the remote computer and heard by the user.

4. A computer-implemented method to allow a remote computer user to listen to teams in a race event, the method comprising:
-
receiving audio signals at a server from a plurality of audio sources at the race event when audio signals from at least two different audio sources occur at the same time; transmitting at least some of the audio signals to a remote computer remote from the server via a network; assigning different priority values to at least two different audio sources from the race event to be heard as selected from indications by the remote computer user; and playing the audio signals from the race event using the remote computer as a function of the priority values when audio signals from at least two different audio sources occur at the sane time; storing audio signals pertaining to a first audio source when the first audio source and a second source are simultaneously communicating, and wherein playing the audio signals from the race event using the remote computer includes playing the audio signals from the second audio source; and playing the audio signals at the remote computer from the first audio source using the stored audio signals after the audio signals from the second audio source have been played. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-implemented method to allow a user to listen to teams in a race event using a remote computer being located remote from server, the method comprising:
-
receiving from the user an indication of at least one highest priority team that the user of the remote computer wants to hear over other teams; receiving at the server communications between a first team at the race event, the first team not being said at least one highest priority team that the user of the remote computer wants to hear over other teams at the race event; transmitting information from the server to the remote computer indicative of the communications between the first team, the server and remote computer being in communication with each other over the computer network; audibly rendering on the remote computer to the user the information indicative of the communications between the first team; receiving at the server communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the remote computer wants to hear over other teams at the race event while receiving communications between the first team; transmitting information from the server to the remote computer indicative of the communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the remote computer wants to hear over other teams at the race event; storing information indicative of the communications between the first team; audibly rendering on the remote computer to the user the information indicative of communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the remote computer wants to hear over other teams at the race event; and audibly rendering on the remote computer to the user the information indicative of the stored communications between the first team after audibly rendering on the remote computer to the user the information indicative of communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the remote computer wants to hear over other teams at the race event. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A computer-implemented method to allow a user to listen to teams in a race event, the method comprising:
-
receiving from the user an indication of at least one highest priority team that a user using a computing device wants to hear over other teams; receiving at the computing device communications between a first team at the race event, the first team not being said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event; audibly rendering on the computing device to the user the information indicative of the communications between the first team; receiving at the computing device communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event while receiving communications between the first team; storing information indicative of the communications between the first team; audibly rendering on the computing device to the user the information indicative of communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event; and audibly rendering on the computing device to the user the information indicative of the stored communications between the first team after audibly rendering on the computing device to the user the information indicative of communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. A system to allow a user to listen to audio sources in a race event, the system comprising:
-
a server configured to receive communications from audio sources at a race event, the communications comprising communications between teams in the race; and a plurality of computing devices, each computing device configured to receive information from the server, the information comprising the communications from the audio sources, each computing device comprising; a receiver module configured to receive the information from the server; a user interface; a storage device configured to store communications of teams; a speaker; and a processor operably coupled to the interface, the storage device, the receiver and the speaker, the processor configured to; receive from the user an indication of at least one highest priority team that a user using a computing device wants to hear over other teams, process communications between a first team at the race event, the first team not being said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event, audibly render to the user the information indicative of the communications between the first team, process communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event while receiving communications between the first team, store information indicative of the communications between the first team, audibly render to the user the information indicative of communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event, and audibly render to the user the information indicative of the stored communications between the first team after audibly rendering to the user the information indicative of communications between said at least one highest priority team that the user of the computing device wants to hear over other teams at the race event. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44)
