  • I have no idea what the blacklight mode is for, but it’s a feature.
    You can check if banknotes/driving licences* are counterfeit, and if you turn the lights off in your bathroom and then look at the toilet with the blacklight, you’ll be more thorough when you clean it!

    Just realised, you could use it in hotels as well :-(

    • We have a desk mounted one at work as part of security checks on check driver’s licences.









  • Radio Paradise have a few streams. Personal favourites are the Rock Mix and for lounging around, reading etc. the Mellow Mix. If you want something a little different then the Global Mix might suit you.
    For general day to day listening then the Main Mix covers just about everything. For me personally, I find there’s too much Beatles and Reggae. I can’t stand them. But YMMV.

    Although Spotify has some excellent prog playlists, that sodding AI thing pisses me right off (although there may be a way to get rid of that, I’ve got to try it out) I have Amazon Prime so their music service is a bit of a no brainer as it’s cheaper. Not sure if I can tell the difference in audio quality. At 67 and a lifetime of British Army (I was in the Artillery man, play it LOUD!) and working with rock bands, my ears are probably not up to the finer points.
    For rock and prog 24/7 then Morow is your friend.
