    Depends on the size of the station. A small temporary station could get away with a handset connected to an application like Nokia Data Suite. If you are a larger station with a high rate of incoming messages you would have to use a bespoke and more sophisticated application.

    And I take it that to set up this kind of operation that it would cost a bundle?

    There are companys that will get you a number like 51010. It's a premium text number, you take a precentage and they take a precentage.

    We didn't particularly like overcharging our listeners so we've stuck with the Nokia Data Suite solution which works really well... you just have to clear out the phones memory on a regular basis.
