The FCC has announced that stations have 180 days from today to implement CAP (Common Alert Protocol) which makes the expiration date March 29, 2011. This is exciting! Don’t you feel excited? I thought so.
More of a CAP description here.
Good luck!

 Ever need to cross reference something? Or find a part fast? Get it ordered and on the way? No longer satisfied with the meager Radio Shack parts selection? Don’t have time to run to Radio Shack?
DigiKey has a mobile app for you. Its not that I like Digikey better than any of the other major parts dealers like Mouser, Newark, Allied, etc. They seem to be the first ones with a searchable mobile app and it seems to work well and it saves time. One of the things that I do not have very much of these days is time so anything that can move a project or repair along is welcome.
I also don’t have anything against Radio Shack, either, they have simply moved away from the parts business.

...radio was discovered, and not invented, and that these frequencies and principles were always in existence long before man was aware of them. Therefore, no one owns them. They are there as free as sunlight, which is a higher frequency form of the same energy.
