Download the RealPlayer program from the RealAudio Web site if you don't already have it. Most radio broadcasts use this technology.
Check to see if the specific radio station you're looking for has a Web site. If the station is broadcasting over the Internet, click on the link to listen in real time.
If you're looking for a specific broadcast, such as an out-of-town ball game or a syndicated program, use a Web search engine like Google or Yahoo! to find the official Web site for the broadcast.
Find the book "Passport to Web Radio" in a bookstore or library for a comprehensive guide to radio stations around the world and how they broadcast over the Web.
Browse the Yahoo and RealAudio sites for lists of stations by location, format or call letters, including Internet-only stations.
Check periodically for new sites. If the radio station you want to hear isn't broadcasting over the Internet yet, it probably will be soon.
