Going well so far, we now have our own streaming radio, as most smaller chans do :).

First of all, we need a name. Aggron came up with "Goldenrod Radio", which is pretty clever, maybe someone can do better? I thought about "LoudRed Radio", with the logo being a picture of a large, red colured radio in a certain Pokemon's mouth, but Aggron's idea is probably better.

But we have a choice for how it's hosted. Cryomancer, and his links to 7chan has allowed us access to 7chan's radio server. I'm getting my own dedicated server soon, we could host it on that, or I could put it on next years 151chan server when we renew the hosting.

We don't have a decision set in stone right now, MrJoe has tried out the 7chan one, while Aggron and I are currently using my home server.

If you want a go at being a DJ, we're on IRC sometimes ;).

Discuss.

Johto Radio Tower is a name that pops in my head so far... which is also associated with Goldenrod City...

I agree, Goldenrod Radio has a nice flow to it.

I do like Goldenrod Radio as an idea, but to just add some more ideas into the mix, how about 151chan's Pokemon Talk, sort of like the Oak's Pokemon Talk broadcast from your pokegear radio in G/S/C?

just a note rossco, when you reset your server last night, all counters reset as well :|
also, once we get a name i can start workin on a logo or banner which is more my style as opposed to programming
>>153
i like the idea of an Oak's Talk kinda thing
>> No. 155
I like this idea...a lot. I'm actually sorry I can't help in anyway (no programming skills and no microphone to DJ with). Hope this goes well!
>> No. 156
I'll have you know that I noticed this thread right away, and began work on a banner that day.
But I didn't know the dimensions, plus I don't think my banner would end up sufficient in quality.
It was going to be the Sugimori PokéGear with 151chan Radio in custom text on the screen, using a pokegear's radio screenshot as the screen.
I had alternate ideas of just making the banner in the style of the PokéGear radio screen, using only the game font.

How do I get in on the action of streaming my tunes?
>> No. 157
I also started a post, but never posted it (I do this a lot ... I put too much effort into some posts)
Johto Radio Tower, or 151chan Radio seem like the only ones.
Individual shows would be named uniquely, like Prof. Red's Pokémon Talk or Team Rocket Take Over or whatever.

>How do I get in on the action of streaming my tunes?
On the topic of actually getting the stream ready, you'll want to use the Edcast plugin for Foobar or Winamp. It's not too terribly difficult to get working, but don't make the mistake of downloading the stand-alone version. There's normally somebody on irc who knows how to set it up if you run into any problems.
As for where to broadcast, I don't know the current configurations of the 151chan icecast server (if it's up at all), so you'd have to ask Ross. I've been broadcasting on 7chan's server, thanks to Cyro, and I'll continue to until we secure a dedicated icecast server here. At that point we can probably start switching off DJs and such.

icecast can support multiple DJs, you could all play stuff at once if you wanted to.

I think these are great ideas and wouldn't mind participating. This thread has kind of died and we've been sticking with Joe as the main broadcast and Goldenrod radio as the name and alls been well. But we could definitely get some cool stuff going here whenever someone feels like producing any of these great ideas.

So, just bumping for a cool thing that I think we should pick up again sometime when we find the time. ;)
