After playing around with the new iTrip mini, the FM
broadcasting accessory for the iPod our little minds got working on
some ideas. We thought we might be able to make the range of Griffinâ€
™s iTrip mini a little better if took it apart and exposed the
antenna, turns out we could. And then we thought, hey- we could use a
couple iPods to broadcast something we wanted to get out there,
perhaps not “should” that is, but could. So that was our
motivation, and here’s the How To.

Birth of a label-sanctioned pirate radio
station
Birth of a label-sanctioned pirate radio
station
05/02/2004 05:43 AMIn the 1960s radio sucked badly; even worse than it does today. There
were no rock stations. The only rock and roll was played on the AM pop
station, and sparingly, at that. FM was relatively new, and the FM
stations only played easy listening, Jazz, etc. My dad listened to FM
95, which played Herb Alpert and the like; almost jazz, "easy
listening," boring music. There were two pop stations in town, one
of which lost its license around 1963 for a fraudulent on-air contest
that had people digging holes all over St. Louis, trespassing, etc,
and it turned out that the prize didn't exist. The station went dark,
and came back with new ownership and a country western format. This
left one bad pop station in the entire large metropolitan area. One
evening my dad wasn't home, so I turned on the stereo, a large
furniture-like thing, and was amazed that there was rock and roll
playing. Real rock and roll, unlike the schmaltz they played on the
pop station. What's more, it was in stereo!

Griffin's stated range for the iTrip is a little inaccurate: I once
left my iPod playing over the radio in the office, got in my car and
drove out of the parking lot, around the corner and down the street.
The signal petered out at about 150 feet. This is through the walls of
my office and several intervening buildings!
I've been running around for the past several months with this bumper
sticker on my car. It's an ink-jet job and as you can see, it's
getting a little faded. I figure that anyone that can read the bumper
sticker-- on the I-5, at a stop light-- if intrigued could tune in and
listen to whatever I'm listening to. No, I don't take requests.

Pirate radio workshops
Pirate radio workshops
05/07/2004 04:23 PMRadio Free Berkeley is giving workshops on how to build your own
pirate^H^H^H^H^H^H^H low-power FM radio station, and what to do when
the radio cops come a-knockin'.
Building your own station is also illegal. Dunifer advises his
students to enlist the help of an attorney before hopping the
airwaves. But he describes microbroadcasting as "electronic civil
disobedience" rather than a typical criminal act.
"As far as I'm concerned, the real pirates are the NAB (National
Association of Broadcasters) and their member stations," Dunifer said,
referring to the powerful lobbying group. "They've stolen the airwaves
with the full complicity of the FCC and Congress."

Let A Million Pirate Radio Stations
Bloom!
05/07/2004 01:28 PMPirate radio stations are nothing new, but one guy is now trying to
train more people in
how to
set up their own pirate radio station (with the more politically
safe sounding name: microbroadcasting), with the idea of creating a
(radio) wave of civil disobedience about how the FCC allocates radio
licenses. Of course, plenty of radio broadcasters aren't too thrilled
about this idea and are fighting heavily against it. The pirate
stations are mostly breaking the law, and it's unlikely enough of them
will show up to make a major difference. Besides, you have to wonder
why it's worth bothering with radio anymore. Why not just set up a
station online?
Dutch Gov't Wants to Shutdown Pirate
Radio Before It Can be Legalized
Dutch Gov't Wants to Shutdown Pirate
Radio Before It Can be Legalized
03/06/2004 01:55 AMOn May 23, The Dutch government auctioned off radio frequencies to
the highest bidders as part of their new Zerobase Radio Frequency
Policy. As a result only the biggest, most commercially and mainstream
oriented stations are able to exploit Dutch radio frequencies for the
eight year term of the licenses. The auction was preceded by "Project
Etherflits" in March -- a crackdown on pirate radio stations which
are technically illegal but were previously tolerated. Studio
equipment was confiscated and large fines imposed on the operators.
Most stations have now been forced off the air. The ZeroBase
Policy acknowledges only two kinds of radio: public and commercial.
Any radio formats that don't fit within either of these categories
have in effect become criminal organizations and can never be granted
a legal broadcasting permit. And even the most successful pirate
stations don't have the financial or legal resources required to apply
for a legal permit if they were allowed to do so under the current
policy.

Do-It-Yourself Smart Radio Station
Do-It-Yourself Smart Radio Station
02/05/2005 09:12 PMA while ago I read a tip somewhere about how to make a few smart
playlists work with each other to make a mix of music for a smaller
iPod. After thinking for a short time I realized I could make a
perfect little ever-changing radio station out of iTunes with a
similar methodology. Start by considering what makes a good radio
station (I know, it's been a while...):
- Your favorite music.
- A balance of new and old music.
- A moderate variety. You want to hear some songs repeatedly, but
not at close intervals.
- New old music. Don't just play the same old songs, cycle them in
and out.
- Old new music. If a newer song is really good, keep it in
rotation as an old song.
iTunes has a way to handle all of this. The core here is that
you're going to have to rate all of your music for this to
work. Unrated music will not make it into rotation. It doesn't have
to be accurate right now. You can go find a favorite artist and mark
all the tracks as fives or find all your audio books and mark them
twos or something. Just get some ratings in. As your ratings change,
so will the station.

just another free online radio station, but I know some of you will
appreciate it a lot.

The Sumitronics SP-103 MP3 Docking Station is a $300 FM

automatically to your USB Host-capable MP3 player. I can only presume
by 'latest Top-40 music hits' they mean 'whatever happens to be
playing on the radio at any given time,' but until the unit is
officially unveiled this week at CES, it's anybody's guess.

06/06/2005 12:15 AM It looks like I got a birthday gift and didn't even know it. A
fellow going by "sticktron" posted a nifty infographic detailing my
previous Do-It-Yourself Smart Radio Station post. It's
certainly a bit easier to understand when you look at it this way.
Note that the playlist detailed in the screenshot is unworkable due to
them all being in one window, but the criteria are valid when used as
detailed on the right.
This approach is based on the idea of a master playlist,
which feeds off of several pools of potential songs. Each pool is
created by a dynamic playlist–called Smart Playlists in
iTunes/iPod–and updates itself constantly.As your songs
get listened to, rated, weeded out, given priority, etc., you will
be continually upgrading the mix. It is TRULY
your own personal Radio Station experience.

MSN Music hijacking radio station

MSN Music hijacking radio station
playlists?
09/07/2004 07:53 PM
So far, feedback for Microsoft's newly launched MSN Music has been pretty positive. Until now. SFGate.com is
reporting that more than 900 radio stations have complained after
Microsoft nabbed effective copies of their playlists.
Although some members might remember the old adage that to be copied
means one is admired, Radio station owners don't seem to be seeing it
this way. When they broadcast on-air, they have adverts; Microsoft are
broadcasting online without the adverts, and without the stations DJs.
Rob Bennett, senior director for MSN Entertainment commented "It
results in a more pleasant experience because you don't have the ads
or the DJs." How kind.
Not surprisingly, radio stations across the nation see this as
Microsoft piggy-backing their hard work, and an unfair way to compete
in the market. MSN Radio is part of MSN Music, and was largely over
looked when MSN Music launched. One of it's features is the 'localised
radio', offering content from 1,200 radio stations.
The current situation is arguably quite confusing. Microsoft label
sites with "like XY.Z FM" and then list what Microsoft
describe as a factual piece of information - the name - rather than a
trademark. One can't but wonder, if the tables were turned, would
there be trademark cease and desist letters being sealed?

Jordanian net-radio station gets state
OK for FM broadcast
Jordanian net-radio station gets state
OK for FM broadcast
01/03/2005 12:14 PM
Xeni Jardin:
Five years ago, Palestinian journalist Daoud
Kuttab launched an internet-only radio station in Jordan called
Ammannet. The group has finally received approval from the state to
request an FM license. With that move, Jordan enters the age of
independent radio broadcasting.
The license for AmmanNet doesn't include news reporting, but the
stations founder and owner feels that it has enough municipal issues,
cultural, social, and economical and sports programming to satisfy the
culturally hungry Jordanian public. "Since the new Audio Visual Law
was enacted, all the stations that have been licensed have broadcast
only music. We are sure that the public is interested in a more
holistic approach to broadcasting in the form of a community radio
rather than just entertainment radio."
Kuttab expects the new FM station to be operating by the spring.
Established in October 2000 under the auspices of UNESCO and the
Greater Amman Municipality, AmmanNet has since grown to become a
leading liberal voice, exercising a wider degree of freedom than most
Jordanian media operations. Among its programs on the Net is a unique
monitoring program of the Parliament and the Municipality, eye on the
media, school radio, sportsnet, IT in Arabic, book reviews, legal
awareness programs
(HAQI) and various cultural and artistic programs.
Link to Ammannet home page, and Link
to background on the project via UNESCO. Congratulations, Daoud.
