ILGdb Program Setup

Setup Instructions:

Run the program and move the window to where you would like it to be on your desktop, then click Setup to set the Port, Speed, Radio, and the Language and scan Pause Time you would like.  When you click Save Settings, the choices you made and the screen position are saved to your folder under the name ILGdb.xml.  See screenshot of the setup screen below.  You can also add radios to the list.  All the radio address information is maintained in a file in your folder named Radios.xml.  This file can be edited with a text editor like notepad if desired.

A sample file (ILGSIMPO.dbf)  is included to test the program.  This is a very old and only a very small part of an actual ILG file, but will allow you to see how the program works.  You must sign up for the databases to get the full version, but they are free, and very complete.  Download the ILGSIMPO.zip file available from the ILGS site and  unzip into the  same folder the program is in.   (see ILGS site for how to interpret the fields shown below).   

Operating Instructions:

Run the ILGdb program  and click on a frequency in the ILGdb window to tune the radio.  Click on the column headings to sort the columns.  A second click sorts in the reverse order.  To widen a column to see more of the content, grab the column header divider and drag to the width you prefer.  If desired, select the language you want displayed, and/or click on the "Stations Broadcasting Now" checkbox to only display programs that are currently on the air.  Click the Scan button to scan thru the stations from the presently selected  location to the end.  Stop the scan by clicking a station.  Don't select a station using the column to the left of station, it uses the wrong frequency (yeah, I know, I'll fix it RSN).
