heh.

I noticed the voices sound even more like hell than usual. My voice system is very mom and pop...but this week's was unusual. I recorded my next week's voices today and they appear fine. Let's see what they do next week,, should be better.

higer quality stream means lower quality encoded files sound worse... Any and everything new should be 192k. My two cents.

Great!
I listen to 56k, and some hundreds of servers after the new one, but I notice no pauses in the stream.
And the sound, well, now it´s playing "The Revealing Science of God". Where in the world I would listen this in a radio?
Thanks for all

A Christmas bonus? What's that? One of Santa's reindeer leaves an extra little something under the tree for you?

I'm contributing the new web server hardware and bandwidth so I didn't cough up for the new station server hardware.

I'm like one of those pro bono lawyers. I should be making big money but due to lack of want, I don't. So I do the books for a homeless place that can't pay me much but gives a little something because they know they're getting off cheap.


and you're donating time also, vax, the most important component
