Hello

I regret to inform you all that I have made the difficult decision to shut down radio server 4 at the end of my billing period. My reason for this decision is because the host is unreliable and I'm constantly having to manually boot up the SHOUTcast server. Aspecially after it been shutdown or restarted by host for no reason. It's quite annoying and the uptime is really poor from the host. It's time it shut the door with them. I'm not looking at moving radio server 4 to a different host at the moment due to financial conditions at the moment.

Radio will be shut down.

Sorry.

Kind regards,

Dean Hodgson

Hello All.

I'm please to share new stream from one of my all time favourite Radio DJs available right now to stream.
He has started to broadcast again online which I'm really excited about.
He was the one responsible for inspiring me to try internet radio streaming and that's why I wanted to share my love for music with others.
Alex Pepper has been posting his very own mixes for a while on Mix Cloud but he has now decided to start his own SHOUTcast stream again.
I have made available his stream link on my radio network page and I'm also posting his social media links below.
Please listen to his stream and check out his mixes.
You won't be disappointed with his music.

Hello

I regret to inform you all my hosting provider Inception Hosting will be ceasing all server/vps operations on Wednesday 15th January 2025. So this means radio server 1 and radio server 1 - relay 1 will be down until I move data to a new host. I'm currently in process of seeking a new hosting provider. I will try to migrate everything before the deadline but I'm very busy at the moment.

Regards,

Dean Hodgson

Hello

My apologies for long disruption to radio server 3.

I can happily say it's now back online.

However the host has moved us to a new location which means also a brand new IP address.

Radio server 3 is now at http://154.7.255.16:8000

Thanks.

Dean Hodgson.

Hello

I'm running BETA testing on two 24-7 streams below.
Please feel free to stream as much as you like to allow me decide whenever this will work in the future.

Radio 1 - http://64.176.189.24/public/radio1 [BETA TESTING]

Radio 2 - http://64.176.189.24/public/radio2 [BETA TESTING]

Hello All

To cut down on costs and to streamline my radio network.
I've decided to beta test a brand new radio management software.
This piece of software has the ability to keep all my radio stations on 1 single IP address with just port changes instead.
Also this will see me move away from SHOUTcast to Icecast for broadcasting.
It also helps to keep all my radio stations secure and gives it room to grow when it is needed in the future.
I will provide more updates once beta testing has finished and when migration might happen if testing is successful.

Hello

Radio Server Number 1 has now changed to a different IP Address because our host inception has said I needed to change over because of network reasons.

New IP Address is http://103.219.22.96:8000

Still the same port number 8000.

Relay stream has to adjusted to match new address.

Thanks.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Dean Hodgson

Updated as of 20-04-2023:

Now back online under a new IP address here > http://51.195.136.221:8000
Currently testing a new 320kbps stream with max of 15 listening slots. wink

Hello

My host has decided to pull my VPS offline and I'm unable to recover the same IP Address.

At this moment Radio Server 2 is offline until further notice.

More updates will follow soon.

Dean Hodgson.

Now back online

Hey

Radio server 3 is offline until emergency maintenance is completed on the server. Hopefully I should be able to bring radio server 3 back online within the next 48 hours.

Updates will follow if it takes any longer.

Maintenance has now been completed.

Radio server 2 is now back online and running with new shows.

Sorry for the delay.

26.06.21 - 18:31

Notice: Offline 24.06.2021 at 17:00 for 24 Hours - Radio server 2 will be going offline for maintenance.

Update 29.03.21 - Radio Server Number 1 is back online at a new address listed below.

Relay 1 is now also back online

http://185.121.24.215:8000  (SHOUTcast v1) 25 Listeners - 128bkps MP3 - [1 Slot Taken For Relay Permanently]

I have taken down radio server 1 and relay 1 offline, while I move to a new host. Unfortunately currently host decided to close his node. Update will follow soon.

I’m shutting down radio server 1 - relay 2 permanently. It is longer be beneficial to have 2 relays for the same radio stream.

Thanks

Dean Hodgson

I’m taking radio server 4 offline while I investigate why the stream keeps shutting down by itself. If it is an issue with the node than I will need to move to a new IP address.  I will post an update soon.

New IP Address: http://5.253.86.160:8000/

Update: (18.01.2021) - I have taken down the stream again. I’m investigating the issue around the stream going offline constantly. At the moment am trying a test stream on old VPS server with fresh audio files from a better source. Hopefully it will run better than last time and I could go back to using old IP address, depending if the test is successfully. Update will follow soon.

Update 2: (24.01.2021) - After running new test stream for few days and using audio files from new source. I’m please to say radio server 4 is now back streaming with no errors in SHOUTcast logs either.
