OpenFM iPhone for Clear FM Frequencies
Category: Cellphone Application and Cellphone News -
Digital Lifestyle Outfitters (DLO) introduced OpenFM, a free application for the iPhone that enables users to find open FM frequencies in their area. Available immediately, OpenFM is a free iPhone application that enables users to instantly find the top-performing frequencies in their area. It’s intended for users of DLO’s TransDock and other FM transmitters compatible with the iPod and iPhone. Searchable by zipcode or city/state, OpenFM pulls its results in real-time from an active database, not a flat file, thus ensuring the most accurate and up-to-date information available.
A frequency may be fine where you live, but drive 20 miles in any direction and it could be totally packed.
The OpenFM application actively searches an FCC-provided database of licensed FM broadcasters and, using complex algorithms, matches that information against known locations of radio towers to determine the highest quality FM frequencies to use. OpenFM pulls the results in real=time from an active database, according to DLO, not a flat file, so it’s kept accurate and up to date.
Results are returned ranked in three categories, from “Best Bet” to “Good” to “OK” quality. And, unlike similar services, OpenFM will work for any city across all 50 states.
