Recent KLIK Improvements

Personal Posts Add comments

We’ve made some improvements to KLIK lately on the IT side to hopefully give a better listening experience:

  • We’ve re-installed SAM Broadcaster so as to eliminate any built-up overhead in the SQL databases, logs, and other complicated issues that advanced programs create.
  • We have installed a new router, which both provides wi-fi to our studio and provides us with better traffic shaping capabilities, allowing us to dedicate more upstream bandwidth to the encoder.
  • We’ve ordered a new SHOUTcast server.  Originally, we were on a dedicated server running Icecast.  However, this server had some real buffering issues, so we have replaced it with a regular SHOUTcast server (which is actually going to save us quite a bit of money each year)
  • Oh, and, we have a new web site!  About time.

Open KLIK Day is this Saturday, which is essentially our way of saying “open house.”  It’s from 10 AM to 9 PM at our new studio on Cherry and Howes St.  Come check it out if you’d like!

Peter has some news about the fund-raiser which I haven’t heard yet, but hopefully it’s good stuff!  As far as I know, the date is still set to August 1st at Bas Bleu Theater.
