DTR Inc.’s Radio Station Rock on Neon Posts Its 100th Show on MixCloud

 The 100th show posted on MixCloud by Rock on Neon Radio is June, 2023’s Nomination Show for Rock on Neon Radio’s New Wave Song Hall of Fame.

Rock on Neon Radio’s show What If New Wave Never Ended airs Mondays through Thursdays, 24 hours a day. One of the features on the show is the station’s New Wave Song Hall of Fame. Every month a prerecorded show is posted to MixCloud containing 12 songs nominated for the Hall. The show is posted to MixCloud rather than being a live show on the station so listeners can tune in whenever they have time. After listening to the show, listeners can use the link on the page to go to the ballot to vote for the five songs they feel are most deserving to enter the Hall.

Songs can have up to three months of eligibility depending on the percentage of votes they receive. However, to celebrate show number 100, the carryover songs from May’s vote will be pushed back to July and there will be 12 new songs up for nomination in June. And all 12 songs are from artists who already have one song in the station’s New Wave Song Hall of Fame.

In order to eliminate ballot box stuffing, listeners need their own unique code to vote. To get a code send an email to rockonneon@gmail.com.

The goal of What If New Wave Never Ended is to capture the feel of new wave stations back in the day. What made those stations great was a combination of listening to great music and finding new favorite songs and artists. That’s what this show is all about. Listeners will hear classic new wave songs, forgotten new wave songs, album cuts from new wave artists released during the new wave era, songs post-new-wave by classic new wave artists, and songs post-new-wave from both established artists that came on the music scene after new wave ended, and from indie and small label artists most never heard of whose music fits the new wave genre.

To listen to, and then vote on June’s nominations go to https://www.mixcloud.com/rockonneon/june-2023s-nomination-show-for-rock-on-neon-radios-new-wave-song-hall-of-fame/.

To get to links to listen to the station live, visit the New Wave Hall of Fame, see the station’s schedule and more, go to https://www.dtrconsulting.biz/rockonneon2.html.

GNU Radio Aims to Improve Accessibility and Usability

 GNU Radio, a free & open-source software development toolkit that provides signal processing blocks to implement software radios, has embarked on a project to make the software more accessible to everyone, regardless of which operating system they use and how much experience they have with wireless communications and digital signal processing. GNU Radio developers have identified several improvements that will make the software more accessible and easier to maintain.

These improvements include:

• Easier installation of GNU Radio on Windows and MacOS computers,

• Easier installation of out-of-tree modules (OOTs),

• Better documentation to make GNU Radio easier to use, and

• Usability features for GNU Radio Companion (GRC).

The improvements were chosen because, while they were under development already, progress on them has been hindered by lack of specialized expertise. This grant from ARDC will allow GNU Radio to hire developers with the expertise needed to push these developments forward. For example, hiring a usability expert will give GNU Radio Companion, the project’s graphical user interface (GUI), a much-improved user experience.

For each improvement project, one or more mentors (who will be volunteers from the GNU Radio leadership or core developers) will guide the work. These mentors will help the contractors stay aligned to project goals and offer feedback at periodic intervals.

About GNU Radio

GNU Radio is a free and open-source software development toolkit that provides signal processing blocks to implement software radios. It can be used with readily-available low-cost external RF hardware to create software-defined radios, or without hardware in a simulation-like environment. It is widely used in research, industry, academia, government, and hobbyist environments to support both wireless communications research and real-world radio systems. To learn more about GNU Radio, please visit https://www.gnuradio.org/.

About ARDC

Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) is a California-based foundation with roots in amateur radio and the technology of internet communication. The organization got its start by managing the AMPRNet address space, which is reserved for licensed amateur radio operators worldwide. Additionally, ARDC makes grants to projects and organizations that follow amateur radio’s practice and tradition of technical experimentation in both amateur radio and digital communication science. Such experimentation has led to advances that benefit the general public, including the mobile phone and wireless internet technology. ARDC envisions a world where all such technology is available through open source hardware and software, and where anyone has the ability to innovate upon it.

Faith Talk Radio Host + Pastoral Counselor, Dr. Angela Chester Makes Top 30 Inspiring Women to Look Out For in 2021

 “It’s great to see women jumping out of the conventional boundaries and making their mark in the industries. Be it entrepreneurship, philanthropy, or politics, their presence has undoubtedly created a fresh wave of innovation and inspiration out there. The NYC Journal continues, “Without each one of their contributions, our industry wouldn’t have been where it stands today. While celebrating all these women of the industry, let’s take a look at the top 30 inspiring, fierce, and empowering women of the world who stay determined to disrupt their ways to success.”

Dr. Angela Butts Chester, a faith-based media professional, empowerment speaker, and pastoral counselor, helps others overcome unproductive mindsets and see new opportunities. Her personal mission – to “enlighten, inspire and empower you” – is the tagline of her national talk-radio show.

Daily Spark with Dr. Angela is a national faith talk radio show that features authors who understand the importance of faith and education. From sci-fi to health and wellness, authors share their stories, and how faith has helped them succeed in life. The internationally known, Daily Spark TV, is the sister show to the radio program.

As a Pastoral Counselor and Empowerment Coach, Dr. Angela, as she is lovingly called, takes a holistic approach. Assisting Millennial + Gen X women, Dr. Angela scaled up her Pivot for Purpose coaching program during the pandemic. Originally one-on-one, including virtual options gave more women access to next-level accountability and growth. Pivot for Purpose helps anyone looking to find better life definition or life purpose. Classes and courses are also available on spiritual development and wellness.

When asked why she keeps moving forward, Dr. Chester says, “Empowered women, empower women. We shouldn’t let an opportunity pass by where we can mentor someone, teach our fellow women what we have learned, or leave a legacy for the next generation. We all walk a smoother path thanks to a great woman who had vision and fortitude.”

Dr. Chester feels her journey as a breast cancer survivor has prepared her to lead and inspire others. As an international speaker, she engages the audience with strategies towards their own transformation.

On Instagram (@drangelachester), she stated that being included in this article was a “humbling and exciting moment.” She also took the time to congratulate her fellow women. When asked why that was important, she said, “Because it’s the right thing to do. I lose nothing giving virtual ‘cheers’ to another amazing woman. We should salute each other more; there’s room for all of us.”

An advocate for successful faith-driven women, her website (drangelachester.com) is designed to encourage women to push past any obstacle they may face on their climb to personal success.
