It’s an AAC stream, works fine on iOS, but I have yet to get it working on a computer, there’s gotta be a way!
[update 2016 – it now works on Chrome. Maybe other browsers.]
If you’re on a computer, just enter “http://stream.webhop.org” into iTunes, Winamp, VLC or whatever, and it should play. [Read more →]
School’s out for Xmas/New Year’s. If work winds down, I’ll have this station on more. Weekend before Xmas it’s on full random, although most of Sat inserted new stuff I’m trying to become familiar with. Hope you have great holidays !
Lately this radio station’s signal has been getting out more, mostly because radio pirates on 98.9FM around Boston aren’t interfering as much. In my car I’m listening well down Franklin Street into Stoneham, down the Lynn Fells Parkway into Saugus, and up and down Main St all the way from Greenwood in Wakefield to Pine Banks in Melrose. The signal’s weak on those fringes, but near my place in the Highlands, it’s stronger. I just play music, only occasionally dropping in a message about this website. Always wondering if *someone* must have stumbled across the signal and wondered “WTF is this?”.
I recently tweaked the processing and really enjoyed listening all Thanksgiving weekend. On Thanksgiving day it was a music mix to play in the background for extended and divergent family. The mix was based on Neil Diamond, Pearl Jam, Kate Bush, and the Neighborhood. Somehow, it worked.
