We are still trying to determine the sources of the hum and why some people hear a *loud* hum while others do not.
The people streaming radio are attempting to produce the highest quality streams possible. We are not making a dime from it.
Without getting in to a debate, there are problems and we are working on them.
Sounded good to me. Heck, what do they expect for free? HD quality?
Here is a what I typed up on the wiki page and this still holds true.
Audio Quality:Keep in mind we are attempting to produce the highest quality streams possible. Audio quality will be especially important during the program's infancy.
If your streams is producing a lot of noise, hum, or if it is over-amplified, more than likely users will not want to hear the stream and will close it immediately (even if the NWS is trying to deliver important alert information). Poor quality streams will reduce our listening audience so let's try to do our best to clean the audio streams and keep them as clear as possible.
Once you are streaming, please compare your audio quality to other streams to match sure you do not have a problem. You will be able to listen to your own stream via the web browser while you are uploading to the audio server.
Please contact us if you are having a problem with your audio quality so that we can help you correct the problem as soon as possible.
