Updates & More
By Rick | June 13, 2008
A few updates from SaGR Studios:
- A/C System: As of this morning we are still without cooling in the “Stop and Go Radio World Headquarters” as Mike from AD Radio calls it. Good news is it’s supposed to be cool today so that will help. We have someone coming in a few minutes to do the box measurements for the new evaporator coil. Turns out a majority of the system was bad having failed a few years back and never used. The entire cooling circuit had been opened to the environment!
- New music shows: Having a few issues with one of the new shows that we’ll be resolving soon. It’s a simple matter of file naming conventions that the automation software doesn’t like so I’m working out a way around it.
- Derry Brownfield Show: Shows are coming up fine after the transition to their temporary studios. Audio quality is also improving. Had some complaints on Monday following that show that it sounded like shortwave radio, I suspect that it was indeed recorded from shortwave!
- SaGR Funding: We are now officially running on empty in the donated funds department. The last bit remaining was used to pay our 6 month hosting fees for the website leaving a shortfall of $26.91 that I covered. We’ll be doing some sort of a fund raiser soon. We had the idea for a raffle but PayPal doesn’t support “Games of Chance” so we couldn’t collect the funds that way. Donations are always welcomed
.
Listener email:
- “George” wrote asking about software used and asked if we used Linux or Windows since a tech show we air was talking about Linux and it made him wonder what we used. We do use Linux here George though our primary software for the station is currently Windows based. Our website I know for sure is on Linux and I believe our streams through LC are as well. — That said we are in the process of converting some of our computing equipment to Linux (Ubuntu specifically). Over time we will switch completely but this may take 6 months to a year while we wait for some of the radio automation software to mature.
We will do our best to be on air live tonight so just stay tuned and watch for a post later today with the determination.

Friday June 6th 2008 Live Show
By Rick | June 6, 2008
Due to thermal problems (i.e. no A/C in the studios and the equipment is overheating), there will be no live show tonight.
We’ve instead scheduled the Country Oldies Show for this evening and then later we’ll switch to Old Time Radio programming.
