 Thank John

:lol

I did have a radio station once, but it was online which anyone with the internet could listen to. I used the Sam broadcasting app...I still have it all somewhere  :scratchhead

I have so many things I'm thinking of doing John...how many actually get done is anyones guess.

I bought a Raspberry Pi last year and squirreled it away for those creative moments in the shed and at the other end of the spectrum I bought a welder too  :whistle

I remember... +/-  2008 / 9  ::)  we all dabbled with it for a while.

I am not a fan of streaming radio, first reason is you need a connection to the internet
which costs money + you are limited to the locations you can pick it up.

I am old skool, FM is the only way to go, a pirate all the way  :yes

FM is free... all you need is radio  :lol

That's a lot of members. I did an online radio station a fair few years ago using the SAM Broadcasting software, but life took over as I was still working then.

Just tried to sign up to your tinypix site but constantly get the error as seen in the image below

Thanks I'll sign up later

I'll look into the station later Les. Off to see 'The Marvels' at Ashford Picture House in a while, read a review this morning and now think I maybe shouldn't have bothered  :scratchhead
