Stations /bynamefuzzy #78

Would be great to have fuzzy search built in.

Example:
The station ROCK ANTENNE Heavy Metal would be found if the user searches with the search term Rock Antenne Metal.

In the current implementation /byname not find the station.

i like this idea, but i do not have a solution yet. i will do some research how to do this correctly inside the database.

If you’re using SQL you could try using a SOUNDEX for pattern matching.
