We have dumped the low bandwidth stream in favor of a pure 64kbps stream, we’ve doubled the “seats” on the 64kbps stream as well.

Just select the Broadband stream from our listen page.

We’re back online. We lost some data and it’s restoring now (Thanks Mozy!). The schedule will be off a bit until I get it all restored and/or the programs themselves are updated.

Thanks for the kind words while we were down. Always nice to hear that folks understand!

This Fridays live show (June 19th) will be the last one for two weeks. In fact, the regular programming will be all Old Time Radio for the same time window.

We’re going to take some vacation time to rebuild the studio, make some changes to the website, programming lineup and schedule as well as just enjoy some much needed free time (you know, camping, fishing, gardening and etc.).

As part of this the podcast will be returning as has been requested by listeners, so if you miss the Friday night show you can catch it on podcast.

So to recap:

June 20th – July 3d 2009

SaGR vacation days.
Studio rebuild.
Website rebuild.
Programming changes (lineup and times).

COMPLETED: Drive replaced. I figured while I had it down I’d add more memory and disk space too. It took a little longer than the planned 30 minutes but it’s done.

Server to go offline at 1:30PM Central time.

I need to replace a hard drive in our broadcast translator this afternoon.

Total downtime should be no more than 30 minutes.
