  • What equipment is used for storing podcasts from radio stations?

    Posted by admin on March 4th, 2010 and filed under radio stations | 1 Comment »

    Can u use an MP3 or MP4 player for storing podcasts from say radio stations so that u can listen to them later. Or do u need an ipod player.

    If you can download the podcast as a music file (usually mp3 since that is the common format that most players will recognize) then you should be able to store it on any media player that plays that format. You will be able to transfer it to your player just like a music track.
    The only difference may be within the player itself. If it is a long podcast, they player may start from the beginning each time you listen to it instead of remembering where you last left off.
    I used to download radio podcasts and listen to them on my cell phone since it played mp3 files.

    What are some popular radio stations in Tacoma Washington?

    Posted by admin on February 28th, 2010 and filed under radio stations | 3 Comments »

    I’m looking to move to washington. I’m looking for a job as a radio promotions director (the job I do in my current location) I need to know what some of the popular stations are there!

    Tacoma is part of the Seattle-Tacoma Washington market, the #14 largest broadcasting market in the country.

    To find out which stations are most popular, you will want to familiarize yourself with the ratings services of Arbitron.

    To find out about trends in radio broadcasting, familiarize yourself with Radio & Records (Online at radioandrecords. com)

    At radioandrecords, type in "Seattle" under market name. You will get a list of the most popular stations, and just as important for looking for a job, which company owns them.

    You may find that individual stations may have a promotions director, or there may be one position for all of one company’s stations in that city.

    Do some research on the following companies: CBS Radio, Entercom, Clear Channel. You may decide to work for one of them, or for another company, but if you don’t understand what those companies are, then you will not get started in the business.

    I know nothing of you or your current job, so that is all either helpful or WAY too basic. Good luck to you!

    Station IDs and short snatches from various AM broadcast stations heard from suburban Melbourne.

    A loop antenna is used to provide some directivity and null out interference. This is connected to a car radio, which generally perform better than domestic receivers.

    How do the radio stations get their songs?

    Posted by admin on February 26th, 2010 and filed under radio stations | 2 Comments »

    Nowadays I know all the radio stations use computers, I just want to know the name of the service they use and how much it charges!!! THANKS!

    Most use Broadcast Programming, Play MPE, or TM Century. None of those companies will sell to anyone except radio stations. Many record labels send CD’s or MP3’s directly to stations.
    There are companies that will sell you a hard drive pre-loaded with an entire music library…but again only radio stations can buy them.

    Do radio stations test the emergency broadcast system on certain days?

    Posted by admin on February 24th, 2010 and filed under radio stations | 5 Comments »

    I was wondering if all radio stations use a certain day each month to test the emergency broadcast system. We have many different radio stations on at work and it always seems that you hear tests on the same day.
    I am in the United States.

    Yeah, I think they have a certain window of time to conduct their tests each month.

    Medical Marijuana: Is New York Next?

    Posted by admin on February 21st, 2010 and filed under radio stations | 9 Comments »

    As of last month, when New Jersey signed it into law, there are 14 states that allow the use of medical marijuana. Some people think New York could be Number 15, and are watching as a bill winds its way through the state senate and assembly. WNYC met up with some medical marijuana users in an artist’s loft in Brooklyn.
