Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
Hmmm.
Had it on for 12 hours last night when there was a bunch of SES work on. Not a thing came over.
We run it on several computers and phones so I dont think its a speaker issue hehe

Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
Apologies for the flakiness of the streams lately, folks. My ADSL has developed a line fault and it's dropping out every few minutes. (Bring on the NBN!!!)

Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
Hi,
It's been posted before but I wanted to add my thanks for hosting this fire brigade stream.
I live up by the forest and it is invaluable. I've always listened using winamp on my home PC but I have now also got a windows surface RT tablet. For those that haven't played with this technology the software that you can install is very limited and you can only get it from the windows8 app store. VLC media player and Winamp aren't in the shop so I can't use them. The imbedded media player is Xbox media player which won't open this link. I've downloaded most of the free media players and radio streamers but none of them accept the link. The old windows media player is stripped back to it's basics and doesn't get good reviews so I haven't bothered installing it.
I asked the Microsoft community forum but they weren't much help.
I'm wondering if anybody has found an app that I can install on a Windows surface rt that will play this stream.
For those of you considering a tablet, my experience is that they are a nice toy but are no where near a replacement for a PC or laptop.
thanks again and keep up the good work.
cheers
Paul.

Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
The audio is very crackly at the moment, which is normal for this time of year. (dusty power lines which get a bit sparky)

Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
Gavin,
What software are you using to stream to Broadcastify?
I've just today decommissioned my Uniden scanner and replaced it SDRSharp and a DVB-T dongle.
I am receiving at my Win7 PC fine (Might need to install Linux and DarkIce on this box), Squelch is working at the PC, but I'm using ScannerCast and getting noise when I should get silence on the feed.
Just wondering what you are using ....
Thanks,
Colin.

Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
The 6AR stream is a Philips FM92 radio running into Oddcast on Windows.
The DPAW/SES stream is a FM92 and a PRM80 running into DarkIce on Linux.
The hardware radios are really old but work fine (and I have plenty of spares). Looking at an SDR-based radio for the future, though. If anything, the power consumption is a lot less.

Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
I wanted something that I could control remotely if need be, and was saving up for a UBCD396XT when a WARSUG member shared the $19 scanner link with me. I reckon I would have had to invest the same amount of time for both solutions, so I think I've come out in front with the SDR option. Not to mention that it takes up less power points.
Colin.

This is the highest number of people ever listening to the WARSUG streams.

Good Effort!!!! If you need any additional mirrors just let me know
Re: Streaming FESA scanner audio
Can you please dedicate the ground channel stream to the Stoneville/Parkerville/Mt Helena fire channels and make it priority over helitacs. There are many people relying on the stream to find out information such as whether they need to evacuate/ if their street has been impacted etc. Just this once ??
