do you get a little pop up to begin the streaming?

[nicmarlo]

Here's a website which provides links to a million online radio stations......here's some for California................CALIFORNIA ONLINE Radio Stations (scroll about halfway down)

Here's one that's online talking about the fires in Santee right now, but it's a San Diego area radio station: 600 KGB

You have to download an applet program to use. But if you don't want to do that, you may be able to try some other station's link. Good luck to you both, looking for info.

no...but there was chatter about a back fire on 18.

[farmer18th]

Yes. It attempts to load and then the pop up window closes by itself.

I was just checking all of the "news networks" on my satellite dish, and there ain't SQUAT about these fires. WTF?

It was the weekend and everyone is home. The only ones in the studio are pushing buttons on the stuff that was taped Friday and a couple of presenters doing rip and read.

Anyone giving reports from the field has a camera and a truck but is also waiting for everyone to come back to work on Monday so they can files stories that are more than just one camera stand up.

[Conservative4Ever]

might mean there is no access to full load of listeners. That happened to me yesterday afternoon....I suggest keep trying to get in.

[Conservative4Ever]

waiting it out at Greatview.

Sounds like they are moving equipment around

[lainie]

yeah, getting ready for a new shift, cycling guys out for chow & sleep, waiting for daybreak to get some air drops going

The people from La Cresta are revolting and going back up to their homes at this time in defiance of the law. This is such a mess.

[Conservative4Ever]

good to hear...how did you solve the problem?

sorry for the double post

[farmer18th]

America Off Line has a bad habit of repeating the behaviour of a window that fails. I brought up the explorer browser (not the AOL browswer) and it went through.

[farmer18th]

Did you hear that about a "structure behind the Catholic church is now consumed.."?
