Not much activity at this time. The county is only 12000 people or so. I'm also scanning Umatilla PD, they are the 84 units if you are listening.

Stream Sounds Great!

I opened Win Media Player/file/open URL and typed in http://streamwebtown/morrowcounty

Audio came up fine and with excellent quality so good job! You can check out my stream at http://justus.addr.com/scanner

It has audio plus I'm using the video feature on Media Encoder to broadcast a webcam of the scanners LCD so you can see the frequency.

I dumped Streamtown and I'm doing my own via WME. I found the Streamtown service very intermittent.

I Recommend Win Media Encoder

Hello,
I've actually had a lot of luck with Encoder. The problem may be with your home network settings for port forwarding. I run Linksys and had to go into it and specify opening port 8080 (both UDP and TCP). Unless you do that the feed can't get past your home network and out to the net.

Also, if you're using your own PC as the audio host and finding your suddenly offline every few days, you'll need to give that PC a local static IP address. The 192.168.1.1:*** changes each time the lease on the address expires. In my case I just set it for 192.168.1.11 and it never changes. There's instructions on the net to show you how to do this at http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/creating/staticlocalip.html

Lasty, the new versions of Norton were set by default to not allow outbound traffic on Encoder which results in no one being able to pull your audio. The fun part is Norton didn't make it generally known that this change was in the newer versions. I found out by googling and came across some articles that explained the problem. So, you may need to go into Norton program settings (if that's what you run) and make sure you've "allowed" inbound and outbound traffic.

Good luck and hope this helps!

enduser56,
I checked out your stream, very nice. At the time, Salina Mall Security came up. I heard a telephone ring and heard both sides of the conversation. Would that be a wireless garage radio/phone? A female was asking for a ride somewhere.

Thanks

Question About The Mall Security Feed

Apparently the mall security radio system has auto patch capabilities, hence the phone ringing you hear. Thanks for checking out my site!
