    Happy New Year From Edgewater Gold Radio!

    As music from the 50s and 60s continues to fade away from the radio landscape, we at Edgewater Gold Radio pledge to keep this great music on the air and preserve your greatest memories. Look for some new features in the coming year highlighting music from the baby boomer generation. Edgewater Gold Radio will also always be in touch with our community at the Delaware beaches and provide news, events and local information for the area. We will still be your reliable source for

    Another Real Oldies Stations Seems to Be Biting the Dust

    I read some really discouraging news this morning. WLNG one of the only real oldies stations on Long Island, NY seems to be changing direction. This great station has been preserving the 60s and 70s oldies sound for as long as I can remember. I'm hearing from reliable sources that the jingles and great imaging is gone replaced with a very boring "LNG radio 92.1." The problem with today's new, younger station management is that even if something isn't broken they want to fix i
    Keeping Your Station Fresh

    Keeping Your Station Fresh

    Today's automation enables us to run our internet radio stations' unattended. This is a great thing but remember, your audience can get bored. You should "freshen up" your station from time to time. Make some small changes like adding some additional music, changing up the rotation and/or the imaging liners, jingles, voices etc. on a regular basis. Your station will be more interesting to listen to without a major format change. It's the same as hearing or seeing the same com

    Edgewater Gold Radio Celebrating 17 Years of Playing Oldies

    It's so hard to believe. 2019 will mark 17 years that Edgewater Gold Radio has been streaming oldies on the internet. It seems like yesterday when Edgewater Gold Radio was born. Let me take you for a little journey back in time. It was 2002 and I was living in Edgewater, NJ. I had just ended a weekend gig at WNJO, 94.5FM, and WVNJ 1160 AM in Teaneck, NJ. WNJO, switched formats to classic hits which wasn't my thing at the time and WVNJ was having some financial difficulty and

    Backups for Backups for Backups

    I'm the kind of person who always needs a "plan B" or in some cases a "Plan C." When Edgewater Gold Radio went totally live from my home studio, I felt that I was vulnerable to an equipment failure which would take the station down for a long period of time. It just didn't feel right that I had no backup! One of the reasons why I switched service providers to Live 365 is that their Auto DJ feature works well. As soon as the live signal is lost, Auto DJ will kick in. Even thou

    Happy Holiday, Merry Christmas From Edgewater Gold Radio

    As most of you know, radio was a big part of my childhood! I took my portable transistor radio everywhere listening to my favorite music and favorite DJ's. All of my favorite memories are framed around the songs, jingles, radio personalities that came out of that little box! Today, each of those songs triggers a memory of a special time in my life. A time spent with family and friends. I can zero in on where I was and what I was doing at the time I hear some of those great so
    Keeping Holiday Music Alive

    Keeping Holiday Music Alive

    The genre doesn't necessary matter. Holiday music throughout the ages lives on every holiday season. Many Radio stations switch to all holiday music very early on these days. Some make the big switch the end of October and play only Christmas music through New Years Day. Many stations start adding Christmas music after Thanksgiving. That generally has been the tradition for many years. Edgewater Gold Radio started adding holiday music to it's playlist on Thanksgiving Day. Eac
    Internet Radio Is Becoming More and More Portable

    Internet Radio Is Becoming More and More Portable

    During the early stages of internet radio, there was basically only one place where listeners could tune in and that was on their PC. Later, some internet stations became available on devices such as Roku or Tivo. Listeners could tune to their favorite stations on their TV's. Today there are so many apps that play internet radio stations that sometimes we don't know where to begin. These apps can be downloaded to any mobile device and go anywhere that there is internet servic
    Internet Radio Stream Problem..Where do you start?

    Internet Radio Stream Problem..Where do you start?

    One of the most frustrating situations`is when the internet stream on your station goes down or in my case keeps re-connecting. Where does the problem originate? This happened about 5:30 pm yesterday. At first I become perplexed. What's causing the problem? Is it my service provider Live 365? Is it my own system or is it Comcast/Xfinity cable? This can be a very frustrating situation. I quickly eliminated the possibility that it was my computer or automation problem. All syst
    Setting up a Great Internet Radio Station Backup

    Setting up a Great Internet Radio Station Backup

    Edgewater Gold Radio runs on the Nextkast automation system. It has a separate module for management and voicetracking. I've been using the same computer to play on air and to voicetrack. This always made me a bit uncomfortable. There were times when voicetracking could affect the on air signal. It didn't happen often, but one time, I didn't notice the mike open on the voice track module and it send my voice tracks over the air!.....Not good! Another time the computer froze -
