NOTE: No warranty of any kind, it works on my machine and I use it every day. I will help with simple things, but you are on your own.
In the file you will find install instructions and a stations file that explains how the stations are created and how to add/change stations.
Below is the Installation HowTo that is included in the zip file.

Voice Attack Radio Controller V1.0
----------------------------------------
NOTE: All this text is to be used at your own risk. It runs on My Machine. I have no rights to any of the programs listed, and the profile is open for you to do with whatever you like. If it breaks things, that is not my problem.
I can try to help you a little, but the truth is, you are on your own, and support is NOT included.
Enjoy it, or curse me, but you have been warned!
The Radio Controller is a simple Radio Station profile for Voice Attack that you can use to control playback, volume, and switching stations. Included are 4 Elite Dangerous based stations and you can change them or add more yourself. See the HOWTO Stations.txt for more information on the Radio stations and how to change or add more.
You will need the registered version of Voice Attack to use this profile. It also requires a media player capable of playing M3U files and I have specifically made this to use VLC.
You can download VLC in both 32 and 64 bit versions from https://www.videolan.org/ .
The profile uses a small program called CLMControl.exe to adjust the volume of the music and stop and start playback.
If you don't use it, you will not be able to adjust the Volume or Stop/Start Playback. You can still start a station playing and change channels, but it limits control.
Command Line Media Controller can be downloaded at CodePlex. It is open source.

Install Instructions:
---------------------
1. Download and Install VLC Player.
2. Download the CLMController.
3. Extract the contents of the VA Radio Controller. This will create a folder called VA Radio Controller with a folder inside it named Radio.
4. Extract the CLMContoller files and copy the CLMControl.exe file to the Radio folder.
5. Copy the Radio Folder to the Voice Attack SOUNDS folder. (The default path to Voice Attack is C:\Program Files(x86)\Voice Attack\Sounds) and copy the Entire Folder into that Directory.
(C:\Program Files(x86)\Voice Attack\Sounds\Radio) NOTE: You will have to confirm you want to do this since the Program Files directory is a system directory.
Importing the VA Profile to test:
-----------------------------------
Open Voice Attack and in the Drop-down for the Profiles, Select Import Profile. In the Radio Folder is a Profile called "Radio Controller-VLC.vap"
To test it, just say Play Channel 1. (You can also test the other stations using Play Channel 1,2,3,4.)
You can stop playback by saying Stop the Music, Music Off or Radio Off. To restart it say Start Music, Radio on, or Play Music.
Volume control is controlled by Volume Up/Down or Louder/Softer.
If you want to increase/decrease the volume faster, you can say Much Louder/Much Softer.
Possible Errors:
----------------
* Radio doesn't play after a few seconds:
Check Error messages.
* Radio plays, but opens in something else than VLC (iTunes or Windows Media Player):
If this ok with you, then leave it, but you will not have Volume or Start/Stop control and if you give a Volume command it will generate an Error.
(These instructions are based on Windows 7. Windows 10 are done differently and you are on your own since I don't have or use Windows 10)
To set VLC to open the M3U files, Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the Radio Folder (C:\Program Files(x86)\Voice Attack\Sounds\Radio). Right Click on on of the Channel files and Select "Open With" and select VLC Player in the list. If VLC Player is NOT listed, select "Other Programs" and check the list of other programs for VLC Player.
If you don't see it in the list, click Browse and navigate to the VLC.exe file and select it. Make sure to put a check in the box next to where it says "Always use the selected program to open files of this type."
(32 bit VLC installs in C:\Program Files(x86)\VideoLAN\VLC and the 64 Bit version in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC)
Now test it again.
* Error is displayed when trying to change Volume or Stop/Start music:
Chances are that the CLMController program is not in the radio folder. Check the Radio folder (C:\Program Files(x86)\Voice Attack\Sounds\Radio) and make sure that the CLMControl.exe file is there.
Importing to your Main VA Profile
---------------------------------
If everything is working as it should, then you are ready to import it into your main profile.
Select your main Profile in the Profile Drop Down of Voice Attack. Then click the icon of the Person with the Pen to edit the profile. On the bottom left of the Edit screen is an Import Commands Button. Click it and navigate to the Radio Controller-VLC.vap file. Select it and it will ask you to confirm which commands you want to import. Make sure to select all, then click import.
It will import them all to your profile. All the Radio Controller commands have the Category of "Radio" so you can find them easily.
