Right so I've been really wondering this for a while now so I need to find this out....

On the SDR site many of us here use I have noticed on some of the tuners (not all of them) logos and pictures coming up for some stations and I'd really love to know how the hell it's done??

I noticed on Reading tuner that 107.3 Albumheads the little Rock pirate was showing Karizma 87.8's logo but 87.8 is really weak on there nowhere near strong enough to get RDS. And have seen some other London pirate logos come through like Wk-End's but it doesn't always show.

How is this done please.....

We use the rds id and the logos are maintained, some are hosted on the individual servers, others are used/delivered from the main server I believe

How would one set up a server? Im planning on setting one up in Pakistan... For my own use and monitoring and for others to have a little nosy lol.

OK, I remember....

A couple of years ago this company contacted me - but on my Radio Brian's email.

They wanted money, I forget how much, and the Station Logo and they would make sure it got into some radios in Cars

All the info is on their website, and support via discord. fmdx.org

Maybe they've got the same pi code, I don't know have to remember that next time I use that receiver wasn't aware there was something there on 107.3

Licensed stations are in the database hosted by fmdx.org, the other ones are hosted by the server owner with the pi code of the pirate station. it's a big database on fmlist.org of all stations in the world (that we know of)
