Jim - just tried to listen to KUAT, but it isn't on the air right now,
so tried KUAZ, its sister station instead.


When I tried the URL I have for their webpage this morning their server
gave me an error. Ditto if I tried to get to the KUAT page from the main
'Arizona' page. So I guess the either have a problem or are changing their
web resources.

Not tried KUAZ so can't comment on that. I'll check to see if KUAT is 'on
air'. If so, I'll post the pls details I have.

...just checked and they are playing Shostakovitch. If I've typed it in
correctly the stream address I have is

http://streaming.azpm.org:80/kuat192.mp3

KUAT sounds just fine - fairly good image. KUAZ is still all over the
place. If KUAT is using 192kb/sec I would say it is doing not quite as
well as AAC at 64kb/sec. Amazing what they can cram into a codec these
days.
