(RADIO) - Play radio in chatroom background
The Radio power allows you to take your radio with you to any chat so you and other users can tune in at any time.
xat also offers a free radio service for your own chat that users can listen to while present there.
Radio Power
The Radio power allows you to play a radio station anywhere you go. Other people can listen to your radio station by clicking on the "Radio" smiley included in your name.
To simply use this power, put (radio#URL) in your name. Where "URL" will be the URL for the radio station you want to have.
Remember it must start with http:// or else the power won't function properly.
If your radio doesn't work, try adding /; to the end of the URL. (e.g: http://radio.com/;)
