Problems with the Broadcast?
If your computer is having trouble reaching the broadcast, try the following:
1. Are you using a PC?
- Yes: Make sure Windows Media Player is fully updated. Go here for the update. This could work for Macs too, or else if you have a mac go to step 2.
2. Are you using a Mac?
- Yes: If your Mac lets you open it in iTunes, great. If not, try downloading this plug-in to open the stream in Quicktime. Make sure Quicktime is updated.

3. Is anyone broadcasting?
The station will only stream if music is playing. If you’re fully updated, and nothing is coming out, we might not be on the air yet. Sometimes a show may start 3 minutes late or something. Check back in 30 seconds.
4. If it sounds like you’re hearing a lot of the same artist in a row, that’s probably our “dead air” music. We pop in a CD when we leave the studio and let it loop until the next show comes on.
