There shows to be one San Antonio Fire feed online, at least at the time I posted this: San Antonio Fire and EMS

I don't know if there was another one, that has since been taken down.

Thanks, but unfortunately that is the one i am talking about, been down for almost 1 month now
It is showing as online right now. Is that in error? It shows 13 listeners at this time. If that's in error, and all you're getting is "dead air" (no transmissions) use the "Report a Problem" link to notify Live Audio administration.

However, remember that almost all feeds are provided by members who volunteer to dedicate the necessary resources to operate them. That includes the scanner or other receiving device, a pc to take the audio and upload it to the servers, and, depending on their ISP, the feed data stream might also count their monthly data usage cap.

Shows offline due to reception problems. So if it is equipment problems the volunteer provider has to fix or get new equipment which can be expensive depending on how the provider is decoding the provoice.

Seems like the scanner is down again, it comes on for around 1 hour a day, then off the rest of the day, Only posting here in homes that it gets fixed, thanks
