RE: Looking for Info on meeting Accessible Internet Broadcasting Needs
Just as an aside I actually used winamp to do a live program for both WQNA FM and WTND/LP FM I streamed to them at 160 44.1 and it worked well 99 percent of the time. Ray T.

I do a Psychology program for RadioGeneral an online radio station; use Goldwave to record and edit it, and then send off to the station. Good luck!

Re: Looking for Info on meeting Accessible Internet Broadcasting Needs
Hi Tom. I would think that my show would be best offered as recorded, allowing the Internet stations that make up my target market to run them when they wish. There's also the possibility of something going wrong during a live show and I'm not looking for that sort of adventure. :) If you can learn what format is generally preferred by stations, that would be a huge help. I would really appreciate it if you would ask the question. I will look into Station Playlist. Do you know if it facilitates playing tracks back to back directly from the computer? Or will I need another music source, such as a CD player or whatever? Thanks again for your very helpful reply.

Re: Looking for Info on meeting Accessible Internet Broadcasting Needs
Thanks Gera. GoldWave is an old friend and certainly would work well in the mix. Great suggestion.

RE: Looking for Info on meeting Accessible Internet Broadcasting Needs
If you are going to do it live to a few radio stations, I suggest using Station Playlist Studio; if you are going to prerecord programs, I suggest using Gold Wave; both are very accessible with JAWS. After recording and editing them, you would normally use an FTP, or mos likely an SFTP program to upload it to each station; for that I suggest Win SCP.
