Most definitely, I am hoping it would just consist of a box set up with an audio input and
a big button that would start up a little script that runs a program (edcast, ices-cc,
something like that) that takes the soundcard input and broadcasts it on dj2 or some other
mountpoint.
And we can also have other streams running on other mountpoints, like podcasts or whatever
Naomi sets up. But we have to decide a mountpoint priority order to determine which stream
people here when they connect to the main stream.

Hi All,
As Mischa pointed to. The current status of the radio is that the backend isn't
defined and ready to go. I agree that we need to consolidate streams. I recently tested
the DJ2 mount point to
sudoradio.com from the radio room and it worked, so maybe we should
just go with the solution that Mischa has. There was also talk of doing a mix of streams
that Naomi was going to set up. Is she on this list?
Again we need to get something set up that will allow for shows to start being streamed
out from the radio room... or at least edited in the radio room and streamed out in a que
based on a schedule. Once we have that set up we can move on to the fun part which is
actually making shows.

I will be at first Friday, and am eager to talk about radio stuff if you want to chat
then! I'm curious if folks envision a sort of streaming music source, or a more
open-access public radio station... in some ways they are very different, although we
could incorporate aspects of both.

Um, ethics are first philosophy, so I think we should figure out what's legal in
tandem, and just start building the monster. There are a lot of indie labels that offer
cheap service, which we could subsidize with cheap ads. It's about $200 a month to
pay for licensing, and the music is solid. Creative commons is usually junk, to
Wooster's point. And, if we could quickly build a user base, and even bundle an app
for our tunes, I'm confident that we could pay for $200 a month or come close to it.
We can build the antenna, but it might be more reasonable to buy one. Who can meet up on
this next week?

Hi,
I haven't been in there in a while. does the studio have a mixer that can handle a
few mics + a few line-level sources? i.e. something better than the little DJ mixer I
donated. It'd also be nice to have a relay to shutoff the studio monitors when the mic
is potted up.
Comet CFM-95SL is a pretty nice antenna and we can get it for under $100 (if someone can
build something better, go for it :)
I can help scrounge up parts to make a better+cheaper amp than what FRB offers. maybe we
could schedule an amp building workshop soon.
Hi friendly neighborhood FCC person reading the list archives! isn't free speech
awesome.

Current status is somewhat indeterminate. There exists
radio.sudoroom.org, a site with
two mp3 streaming players, one pointed at a stream that Andrew set up I believe, and an
icecast2 server that I set up at
sudoradio.com. I can't speak much about the other
stream, but it was silent when I tried playing it earlier.
For the
sudoradio.com stream, we have unmetered 100mbit bandwidth, native ipv6 if we
care, and a 192kbps music rotation going at all times with a large selection of music that
I think is pretty awesome. Some of it is mixes and DJ sets (some by yours truly), some of
it is experimental indie electronic music. I invite you to have a listen, it's usually
pretty bumpin':
http://sudoradio.com/listen.pls
There is a bot that reports the current artist/track and also the current stream title in
#sudoradio on free node, and the website has a mp3 streaming flash player that I wrote and
also reports the current artist/track/stream title.
Andrew had rightly expressed a desire to have access to the stream configuration and
server, and I am happy to provide it. Please speak to me in person I guess if you are
interested.
It would probably be good to consolidate the streams. We can certainly make one a relay
of the other, but that seems like it would overly complicate things for no benefit.
I'm open to ideas on what to do.
There has been some discussion regarding copyright, which is an absolutely valid and
reasonable concern. I think there may be some consensus that addressing it is less of a
priority until we actually have listeners and there exists some creative-commons-licensed
music that isn't utter shit.
We also have a 0.5w FM PLL transmitter for terrestrial radio, which as far as I know is
functional and has a filter and everything. It needs a new amp which can run anywhere in
the range of $20 to millions of dollars, I'd suggest a 15w amp kit from Free Radio
Berkeley, which runs about $80. I'd be willing to purchase one if someone is willing
to build an antenna. There's a link on a previous email I sent on the subject to
instructions to manufacture one on the cheap with nothing much more than PVC pipe and some
wire.
I may lend a core2duo machine to the space that we can use as a streaming source client,
and a raspberry pi that we can dedicate to always playing whatever is on the stream, that
could be plugged in to speakers or eventually the FM transmitter.
I hope that is helpful.

Hi everyone,
Welcome to the sudo radio listserv!
What is the current status of the radio? What have people been working on? What do we
need to move forward?
