ABSTRACT:
A remote broadcast listening apparatus includes a conventional telephone communication system and a plurality of receivers for receiving broadcasts of electromagnetic waves and for converting the received broadcasts into signals transmissible over the telephone communication system. The receivers are connected to the telephone communication system and are deployed in diverse locations throughout the globe. A central station assembly is connected to the telephone communication system for receiving telephone-communication-system transmitted signals from the receiver and for sending control signals to the receiver by way of the telephone communication system. A customer interface unit, which includes a conventional telephone, is connected to the telephone communication system for accessing the central station assembly and for receiving signals from the receiver through the central station assembly. Each of the globally-deployed receivers includes a central station assembly and can include one or more of the following functional components: an AM tuner assembly for tuning in amplitude modulated radio broadcast signals; an FM tuner assembly for tuning in frequency modulated radio broadcast signals; a volume control assembly for controlling volume of the telephone-communication-system-compatible signals; a treble control assembly for controlling treble of the telephone-communication-system compatible signals; a bass control assembly for controlling bass of the telephone-communication-system compatible signals; a mass storage device for storing received broadcast signals; a TV tuner assembly for tuning in television broadcast signals; and a SW tuner assembly for tuning in short wave broadcast signals.
