The new streams are live with new software, hardware, and operating system. The LAME encoder was used to get the best sound from the MP3 format and the new server software now includes the artist, album, and track name in the stream. The low bit-rate streams, particularly, have greatly improved sound quality. And again (2-11-07) the sound quality of the 24-bit stream has been improved even more! A problem with the stream occasionally having trouble staying connected was traced to the network setting of optionally using "IPv6" when a connection is made (Feb. 10, '07). The "Configure IPv6:" setting has been changed to "Off" rather than "Automatic" on the server. A more reliable connection can be had by the listener by also making this setting "Off" on their own computer. Ask your geeky friends how to do this if you need. ;-) Please address questions and comments to the DJ. Thanks for listening!
