The power button on radioside didn't seem to work on the Windows Phone browser, so I haven't had any success with it yet.
In the process of designing it, this idea came up as well, however I ultimately decided against it because on a closer look I realized it will be an issue, for one some countries have only 2 digits while others 3, then for a country like US with many stations the number will end up even longer than what we have now.
It was a system I liked also yet upon implementation things became clear that are not workable and will cause a lot of headache programming wise.
Another system that also came up in the procees is using the 2 letter country code plus station number, so FJ001 and so on. Will have to see how the people receive the current setup and take it from there.
