Hi Bryce
I use a Veronica 1 watt pll model.... what part of NZ are you in?
I'm in Dunedin.... I guess it would be cheapest for you to get someone in your
own town look at it.
Do you have a 50 ohm dummy load you can connect to the aerial socket instead
of your aerial? It should enable you to rule out any possible aerial
problems? If you have recently changed frequency you may have to adjust the
VFO I think its called.

Hi to you all
I am new here to your group
I have a Veronica Transmitter and it is not working at the moment
would someone be able to take a look at it for me.

Which Prison? Mt Eden?
I got BaseFM at Paremoremo late last year. More like 10watts.

I'm not sure how other stations fared, but he got my station's name
wrong, frequency wrong, and claimed we were broadcasting in Tauranga (we
aren't - but we are in Hamilton, which wasn't mentioned)
Fairly typical in my experience with the media though... an hour long
discussion gets boiled down to one or two rather innacurate statements
or quotes.
Also interested to see Mark 'Slave' Williams claiming BaseFM is reaching

One wonders if there should be an ammendment to the GURL limiting

The article has nothing new, but helps staple together what LPFM is
for their readers (maybe new listeners too). Shame they couldnt get a
point of view from The Flea or TLC for a bit more contrast.
The city is so overrated as the be all & end all of lpfm broadcasting,
but Metro always lean "nothing north of Takapuna, nothing south of
Ellerslie".
Had they spoken with the LPFM society, they would have something more
intersting to write about, surely.

Orban has an encoder for aacPlus. It looks like it's a one time US$100 payment for the software, and I believe that it is now compatible with Shoutcast servers, with more compatibilty with mp3 servers to come.
If you haven't heard a 24 kbs stream with aacPlus it's well worth it. It's VERY impressive, and extremely cost effective for a programmer. The decoder is a free Winamp plugin.

It seems there are some AACplus decoders around but no encoders. I suspect there is still a royalty payment requirement for all decoders/players sold.
Unfortunately open source doesn't mean patent or royalty free. LAME is an open source MP3 encoder. It is legal to download the LAME source, but not a compiled executable. LAME executables are only available from web servers in countries like Russia and China where patents have little meaning.
With some investigation myself and reading what others say about sound quality, it appears to be the number one codec at the moment and at least 50% better than any of it's competetors. A 48kb/s stereo stream is regarded as similar to 128kb/s MP3, and this would put Ogg Vorbis at about 80kb/s for similar sound quality.
RealPlayer 10 and Winamp 5.04 can play the format. US$100 is the cheapest stream encoder I can find. What are you using Dubber?
Cheers,
Ross.

I'm not yet (though my enthusiasm is leading me in that direction) -

My Streamium box seems quite happy with it too...

AAC+ being better than Ogg.is debatable. Most listening tests have it very similar. And if AAC is slightly better, it is only due to the millions of dollars invested in this commercial proprietry codec. Any player that wants to play it, and particularly anyone who wants to encode it must pay thousands of dollars a year.
Ogg Vorbis is free, open source, and patent free. The licence allows anyone to use it or incorporate it into other software, even for commercial purposes. The source code is available for anyone to play with.
I doubt many players will adopt AAC because of the cost. I doubt any free Linux players will ever support it, whereas every Linux player supports Ogg. Many volunteers are working on Ogg Vorbis to make it better.
Xiph (the Ogg developers) are also working on a Video codec called Ogg Theora.
"Two Low Power FM Broadcasters were also audited and founded to have power levels marginally above those permitted. Warning Notices have been issued and they will be rechecked early in the New Year as part of our compliance monitoring and followup."
Welcome to the February issue of the Business Update - our first issue for the new year.
RSM NewsWavelength Merges with Business Update
Radio Spectrum Management is committed to providing quality communications with our stakeholders and we are continuously reviewing the quality and accessibility of the information we deliver.
New 400 – 450 MHz Policy/Planning Document Released
Radio Spectrum Management have completed a review of the 400–450 MHz band. A number of changes have been made including trunked dispatch and digital service channel plans. Licences can now be engineered and granted in accordance with the revised policy.
Radio Spectrum Management Team Audit in Hawkes Bay
From 6-10 December 2004, a team of four Radio Inspectors were present in the Hawkes Bay area to conduct a concentrated round of audits as part of RSM’s ongoing compliance programme to ensure a clean spectrum and encourage licence compliance.
One of radiocommunications obvious uses over the years has been for communication with mobile stations, where physical connections are not possible. However, an increasingly popular use has been communication between fixed points (fixed links) where a physical connection would be more expensive to achieve or more prone to outages.
It is a standing joke in RSM Field Offices that complaints of interference to commercial or safety radiocommunication systems will most commonly arrive at 4pm on a Friday afternoon. Last Christmas Eve did not prove an exception to the rule!

"Long Live Ogg Vorbis". I've been encoding all my CD's to Ogg since 2001, and streaming my LPFM station in Ogg for a couple of years. If anyone wants a WAV to OGG encoder/tagger, I developed one some time ago here:
Those thinking 'wtf is ogg', it's like mp3s only with better quality at lower bitrates. A 56kbps ogg file is less than half the file/stream size of (and yet sounds like) a 128kpbs mp3 file/feed. Winamp supports ogg as well as other programs (such as Foobar). IMHO, ogg should be the standard webstreaming format for any radio station.
Move on people - ogg was a stepping stone to AAC-plus :)

format.
Both broad band and modem users will notice a
substantial improvement in the
sound of The Wave. We hope you enjoy it and that
you'll listen longer.
If you have bookmarked the streams in your media
player of choice, please be
aware that the URLs for them have changed. You will
need to go to the listen
page on the Wave's web site at
http://www.TheWave.co.nz, choose the
appropriate link for the type of connection you have,
and then save the new
stream as a bookmark or favourite.
Hope you enjoy it.

Remember that if you can't hear anything in one desired area on a
freq, drive 1-2km from your site to check its clear there too.
I suggest you check with Robert Dew at TLC Radio 107.7 in Otahuhu, as
Highland Park is directly visible across from Otahuhu through the
Tamaki River and may affect his transmission.
If you strike problems, see the LPFM Society to help sort it out.
welcome to the lpfm airwaves Michael!

I am definately NOT the talking clock! I have not started broadcasting yet. In fact my transmitter has just left the factory in the UK today, so there is no way it could be me!

Hello, Yes I'm in Spokane WA. 99218-1464 USA and these are NRG
items.
They include the fan cooled PLL Pro 3, 1 to 4 watt transmitter, The
Pro 4 stereo encoder with digital oversampling and active pre-
emphasis (50us or 75us), The Pro 3 stereo limiter/compressor with
switchable pre-emphasis (50us or 75us) and stereo expander. All of
these items are in my custom designed cabinets and do work very well,
excellent sound quality. If anyone is interested please e-mail me
directly at spokwa467@... as I don't always check back on
these
postings. Thanks---Alan

This is a New Zealand group and I believe you are in the USA quoting prices in USD. What would be the total cost of shipping a 1 watt TX to NZ including freight?
What advantages does your TX have over Nrg PLL PRO 3 priced at US$220 + freight
I have a top of the line Professional FM broadcast station for sale. Consists of 3 separate main components. PLL transmitter (88 to 108 MHz), Stereo encoder with digital oversampeling, limiter/compressor, power supply and antenna. Completely assembled into custom cabinets and tested, ready to go. This system works very well and sounds excellent. $600.00. E-mail me at spokwa467@... or go to my web page at http://hometown.aol.com/spokwa467/FmTransmitters.html for complete details, specifications and photos.

Daily music trivia for your station - probably good for Country, and
Oldies/Unfogettable formats.
have fun..
Simply put, drawbacks happen regardless of whether software is free
or not. You are never going to find the perfect piece of software,
but will find one that suits most of your needs, with or without
support being offered.
Your postings appear to suggest you get the best run for your money
when you pay for it. My experience would suggest there are a lot of
good things out there for free, and one should seize the moment. But,
in the end, if you have to pay to get all you want, then you have to
pay.
My comments re: Winamp, and users of, is testament to this. It is an
awesome free app (for what it does), and is widely used - even by
members of this group. Being free does not make it bad just because
it is free. Infact, some software you pay for uses Winamp as it's
player. I'm sure the authors of this type software wouldn't be using
it if they had a problem with it being free.
I'm sorry that your experience of DirEttore, and/or other free
applications has not met your standards, but as for me (and many
others) it/they do meet ours, and we're very happy with them.
Cheers,
Herb.

If you'd care to expand further on what drawbacks YOU get from 'free'
software, I'd gladly lend you my horse.
Those are what I found to be the bad attributes of DirEttore. 'Free'
has severe limitations in the real world, esp when it comes to support.
It's helpful to others when spilling your guts about it here.

If anyone is paying through the nose and not getting support, they'd
better think about switching systems...
