Hello, I would like to setup a live feed for my county. The current county feed has been unusable for a little over a week and even when it is online, there is a good bit of delay from the live audio via our local radios. As such, I was thinking that allowing users to connect directly to a feed instead of relaying it through Radio Reference might be a good local solution.
I have access to a datacenter facility with plenty of low-latency symmetrical bandwidth, redundant power, and static IPs to handle direct connections to the stream. Additionally, I already have server equipment in place that could run the recommended application.
Here is what I need help with:
1.) Best scanner system to buy that will follow the trunked system for Guilford County, NC. (dispatch, ops, and tac channels)
2.) Best server software to utilize for broadcasting
3.) Best client for smartphones (droid and iphone)
I would think that the only latency in the boradcast should be my Internet latency plus the smarthphones network latency which should really be less than a second total delay for the audio feed of the devices can simply connect directly to the server. This would be a huge benefit for volunteers relying on this audio feed.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
