[IRCA] Falkland islands Radio Service Begins Streaming
From http://blogs.rnw.nl/medianetwork/falkland-islands-radio-service-starts-internet-streaming#comment-797581 Falkland Islands Radio Service starts Internet streaming December 23rd, 2008 - 13:01 UTC by Andy Sennitt http://blogs.rnw.nl/strategie/Andy%20Sennitt I just saw this message from rob4alukon the Digital Spy website: *A friend from the Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic emailed me to say that the Falkland Islands Radio Service (FIRS) has started to broadcast on the Internet for 6 hours per day (from 1000 GMT). Their stream URL is : * http://asx.abacast.com/falkland_islands_radio-live-24.asx *I've been told that its a direct link up with their 530kHz mediumwave signal so the audio is not that hot but might be of interest to those who would like to listen to a local service in a UK overseas territory. * Indeed, I am listening to it as I type this, and it appears to be an off-air relay with some fading. To my ears, it sounds like one of the FM transmitters rather than mediumwave. The stream is only 32 kbps, but the audio quality is quite good. The schedule through 8 January 2009 is available on the FIRS websitehttp://www.firs.co.fk/schedule.php. ( http://www.firs.co.fk/schedule.php) According to the Falklands Government website, the streaming service commenced in early November via the station's website, but I cannot find a link there. Penguin News says that in the near future, podcasts of a wide range of FIRS programmes will be available to download. Station Manager Corina Bishop said Synergy Information Systems has been instrumental in ensuring that the streaming could go ahead, adding that it could not have happened without the support and sponsorship of Cable and Wireless. Although Falklands Radio will initially not be online after the Lifestyles Programme finishes each weekday, the plan is to extend the hours in the near future. -- Sincerely, Paul B.
