[SBE] FM stereo silence detector/alarm

[Joshua Smith]

I don't know about a digital input silence sensor.

For an analog input silence sensor I use the *BT Silence Monitor III
Plus*and, although the manual could be written a lot more clearly, it
works
pretty well.  You can set the threshold and time to whatever you need to *via
*internal switches.  You can tie the alarms from it to a Remote Control
System like an ARC-16 and use that to phone you.

Only annoyance I have with it is that unless someone is around to push a
button, or unless you program something into your Remote Control unit to do
it, you can't shut the alarm off once the issue is resolved.  I wish they
would put a switch in there that would automatically reset once audio is
restored.
