includes receiving this program free of charge.
However as a member you may use the program on any computer you have

to share the program with non members.
The program requires only
an Internet connection. The "program" receives DATABASE information from
2 separate servers that verifies the stream and tests your version. If
the stream is present for any members on-line, the "program" then
displays stream information on the "client" (your) computer. To execute,
simply install and click on the "CAMRADIO INFO" desktop icon.
Members should
stream in 800 by 600 when possible and use Webcam 7 OBJECT EDITOR to display
call sign and frequency information. Other stream images, video and
desktop information can be displayed at your discretion. The Basic
stream setting is 320 by 240.
We now encourage
higher definition as long as stream members are using a BROADBAND
connection and they are running Webcam 7 as efficiently as possible.
Our display program significantly improves computer
speed and makes the on page display very enjoyable. Simple mouse strokes
can ZOOM display and even enlarge the image to FULL SCREEN.
This program is fun and simple to use...This program does not require a
WEB BROWSER.
(a) CAM RADIO INFO is
a copyright of N7HQ and CAM RADIO NET and the distribution and/or
use is
