This might be a Broadcastify API issue or SDRTrunk issue, I did cross post to SDRTrunk discord.


I want to help a fellow feed provider that's having network issues by supplying his feed with audio from my SDRTrunk... But I can't log in as him bc I have 8 feeds still going. How can I add a feed without logging in? He gave me server mount and password....

SDRtrunk requires Radio reference login to pull regular broadcastify feeds. Is this an API requirement to stream?

Are these actual BCFY Calls feeds? If so, why don't just sign up for a new/additional Calls feed for the same exact site that your buddy provides. BCFY will accept multiple feeds for the same site(s). That way you can feed 9 under yours, your friend can feed his/hers when they are able. And when your friends is offline or experiencing problems, yours will automatically fill in all the blanks.

No. We both have our own BCFY Calls Nodes (Mine #999, His #1354). The issue is his standard feed is constantly connecting and disconnecting. SDRTrunk reported no errors, other than "disconnected & Connected". We used CMD to Ping audio1.broadcastify.com (his assigned server) and it has packet loss every 3 packets. So we pinged audio9.broadcastify.com, it had no packet loss and a solid ping time. To double check, we pinged Broadcastify.com, my home IP address since im a few miles away from him, and basic DNS server pings... only audio1.broadcastify.com has packet loss. However, I applied to feed another fire dispatch and it got approved. So the primary issue in this thread is solved. I will start another thread for this packet loss issue.
