    Amazon Echo Devices Should be Able to Accept More Radio Directories

    Amazon Echo Devices Should be Able to Accept More Radio Directories

    This is just an opinion piece today. I own an Amazon Echo and currently these are the only music directories or services that the Echo accepts: * Amazon Music * Spotify *iHeart Radio * Tunein Edgewater Gold Radio is heard on Tunein so you can access it with your Amazon Echo device but there are many internet and FM stations that are not heard on one of these services. This means that you cannot access them on one of these devices. Given the popularity of these devices, music
    Going Back To My College Radio Station For Alumni Celebration

    Going Back To My College Radio Station For Alumni Celebration

    Forty six years ago I walked into the college radio station at William Paterson University hoping to get a show. I had no radio experience but was willing to learn and do anything I could to make my debut on the air. I swept floors, emptied kitty litter, took out the garbage etc. Luckily I was given a show. It was on Friday mornings from 8 - 11am. At the time the station was a carrier current station with transmitters in the dorms and hookups to the student center and snack b

    A Recommendation For Radio Station Automation - NextKast Does it all!!

    When I first started Edgewater Gold Radio back in 2002, I used the Auto DJ feature in Live 365 to run the station. There were limitations, no voice tracking ability and really very little if any cross fading or processing. I used this system for many years.It's a great backup system but I wasn't satisfied using it for 24/7 broadcasts. I switched to OTS automation in 2004 but was still was not satisfied. I need a system that has great dynamic features and is easy to use. I ne
    When Does Your Station Start Playing Christmas Music?

    When Does Your Station Start Playing Christmas Music?

    Hearing Christmas music on the radio was always a thrill for me as a kid. It confirmed that the holiday season is well underway. Working in radio, I always enjoyed it when Christmas music was added to the playlist. I love the holiday season and Christmas music always brings back great memories for me. Traditional we usually wouldn't hear any holiday music before Thanksgiving. Radio stations would start to add the music to their playlists a little at a time from Thanksgiving d

    Are You Looking To Add News To Your Station?

    Are You Looking To Add News To Your Station?

    If you're an internet station you probably don't have your own news team. If you would like some news on your station, I would recommend adding FSN or Feature Story News to your station. FSN's anchored news bulletins are updated multiple times daily. They provide three versions of FSN World News. The cost is about $15 a month. FSN News works with all automation system and do not contain any commercials. You can choose between three types of newscasts per hour. * A 30 secon
    Internet Broadcasting - Facing Competition

    Internet Broadcasting - Facing Competition

    Internet broadcasters are faced with fierce competition from thousands of other stations streaming all the time. You're broadcasting to the world so how can your station stand out and attract listeners? Unlike terrestrial radio stations that are corporate owned, Internet broadcasters have an "open slate" to be creative and provide programming not found on commercial terrestrial radio stations. We also have the advantage of seeing statistics on a daily basis showing who's list
    The Double Edged Sword of Internet Radio's Reach

    The Double Edged Sword of Internet Radio's Reach

    Terrestrial radio targets specific areas which can create a fairly easy revenue stream. You concentrate on the area that you cover. Promote events, provide traffic and weather, air local programs and sell advertising targeting local merchants. It's a totally different situation when it comes to internet radio. Internet radio is world wide. The map above shows all the areas of listeners to Edgewater Gold Radio. The darker the color red, the more listeners. As you can see we ha
    A Broadcasters Nightmare

    A Broadcasters Nightmare

    Once in awhile I 'll have two of the same recurring dreams. One is that I'm at a radio station, on the air using only vinyl records to play music when suddenly one of the turntables stops working. Keep in mind I have only two turntables and there are no music on carts or reels in this dream. It is a dreaded feeling that broadcasters sometimes had to face back in the day of vinyl. Another dream I have is accidentally leaving the mike open and having unwanted studio chatter go
    Soundproofing a New Studio

    Soundproofing a New Studio

    Soundproofing is very important when it comes to providing quality audio to your podcast or internet radio station. If we are broadcasting from a studio at home, some soundproofing will improve your sound and limit outside noises. If you are designing a new studio, there are some things that you should take into consideration during the design process. Soundonsound.com has provided a detailed explanation of soundproofing and hopefully can provide you with some good tips if yo
