Default RSS feed?

Are there any plans to implement an RSS feed in the future? I've looked and can't find one, but it would be interesting to have one as I have a companion LCD display that can display them which sits beside my main monitor.

No plans to add anything until the technical, hosting and funding issues are resolved.

Unless I've misunderstood this, I'm getting an RSS feed.

In that case then I guess there is one enabled by default!

I've never checked and never used RSS.

How bizarre!

Now I just have to figure out how to plumb the URL into my program, its expecting an address ending in .rss

https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/....php?type=.rss seems to give the same information. Will the program accept that?

Doesn't appear to be working, but I think there is a problem with the program I'm using to drive the display (LCDstudio)

I'll try and get it working then report back.

Dave.

Both links work with the standard Firefox RSS reader.

Even just https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/external.php works but it doesn't end in .rss

They seem to have an active support forum at http://www.lcdstudio.com/forum/ so it may be worth asking there if you can't get it to work. Perhaps post the RSS feed links above for them to try?
