And further

When I began this, I had the idea that I would collect simply two links for each station: one to play it, and another to display the programme schedule.
But a few further items may be useful, so here is a template of what I am currently attempting to collect for each station.
Each of these items is easy to discover, except for "how to record it". Sometimes that too is easy, and at other times its unearthing can require hours of tinkering. So from now on I am sometimes going to leave this "how to record" item until later, and will go back to collecting the other information as quickly as possible, so that our list of stations will go back to growing quickly.
Some stations do not publish an intelligible schedule, or they play only five-minute snippets, so they will not be included at all - Norway (NRK Klassisk) is an example - can any one make head or tail of their schedule?
But in general there is so much available - for example RTHK4 Hong Kong has a whole year of "Listen Later". So that is another requirement - a search. - for Atterberg or Delius or even Sorabji for instance.
Oh and we would still like to see your comments suggestions and additions, please!
