Detailed Description

The QRadioTuner class provides an interface to the systems analog radio device.

You can control the systems analog radio device using this interface, for example:

 radio = new QRadioTuner;
 connect(radio, SIGNAL(frequencyChanged(int)), this, SLOT(freqChanged(int)));
 if (radio->isBandSupported(QRadioTuner::FM)) {
     radio->setBand(QRadioTuner::FM);
     radio->setFrequency(yourRadioStationFrequency);
     radio->setVolume(100);
     radio->start();
 }

The radio object will emit signals for any changes in state such as: bandChanged(), frequencyChanged(), stereoStatusChanged(), searchingChanged(), signalStrengthChanged(), volumeChanged(), mutedChanged().

You can change between the frequency bands using setBand() however it is recommended that you check to make sure the band is available first using isBandSupported().
