Radio has a feature called Categories where you can specify that each item is in any number of your specified categories. Unfortunately, the documentation on this feature is rather terse.

After I created my categories and edited each of my existing posts so that they were in at least one category, I couldn't find the generated pages showing all of the posts in each category. That's when I discovered that I should have checked the box that says "Check this box to render this category in HTML" for each category. After doing that, I still couldn't find the HTML. But I was able to find a directory called categories underneath the www directory in my Radio UserLand folder. Underneath this categories directory were my new categories. Each one contained just a single rss.xml file. Where's the HTML?

It turns out that I had to edit (without making any actual changes) to one post in each category in order to build the HTML for those categories. Apparently you have to edit a post in order to get the HTML to rebuild even after you modify a template (which I just did in order to get the links to my new categories to appear on my home page).
