Yea but your finger still stinks really bad

Sorry for not getting on the air overnight, we had a torrential amount of computer problems. While I love a lot streaming radio and all , the quality of a show, is determined usually of the amount of bandwidth, and a big enough pipe to get those little packets of information including music through that pipeline. Solution? pick times that kids are not at home, and most folks are at their jobs. Reason, less people on the wire the better to get through what your trying to pump over the web. About the only time and even it had its problems, but I had less troubles in Woods Cross Utah than just about anywhere. Why? I had near 300mbps coming down and about half that going up. Meaning near instant contact, with little reduntacy . In other words no lag between the studio to transmission site and to you. The same can't be said for here at Cable-One, and certainly AllWest. Although even at half the bit rate, still AllWest gave me better stability, and oh yes less cost. It's easy for Goliath outfits like Cable-One to say this is good, since they judge what's good from a near fiber optic connected system in Arizona. The same can't be said for a small town say like Wendell Idaho, with much of it still on coax. So yes a search is on for a better but less expensive pipeline, which might mean mid month September we'll go off air until I research and put into place what can or can't be had here in Wendell as an alternative. 
There are those that already have chimed in about my barking of old Zeb. Understand while our philosephies are very different at times, his approach and mine are nearly identical. However on the subject of this about stopping someone from advancing their(my) careers. Dig this; back in 2011/12 somewhere, KBAR AM 1230's ceo owner Kim Lee approached me about buying the lone AM, there in the Mini Cassia area. The price of that was inline, and paperwork being carved out. Trustee's of both the Montgomery Foundation and the Knytes were putting together the funds, looked like a damn near done deal. A new location for the studios, new announcers, and a new program director in place. A little racy, and certainly much different than that what KBAR was at the time. About mid game, Kim decided to withdraw on the offer. Why? Zeb Bell, Gina Jameson, and a few others said they were in protest of a change and thus the project was stopped. Or at least hit by a phazer set on stun. I got egg on my face from networks, as well as the organization and the Hazzard Syndicate. It's easy to sit there in your house barking about being self sufficient and all, but when someone is about to take a big slice out of his or another's pie that's an entire different thing.
Even so, HazzardAyre Radio, and all that's connected to it has prospered, and elevated itself above anything we in the Knytes ever planned. With an annual billing of $13,million and expanding nationwide and world wide, with two of our programs establishing their own respective networks on XM/Sirius, Highway Hooker Radio including Tawkin and Talking Toew as well as the groove that we got to move on in the first place Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio, which will have as part of it , HazzardAyre Radio. So Zeb and others, don't sit there and say your hands are clean, when many of the rest of us, knows that at least one of your fingers stinks really bad.
On air at 8:00PM

Let's hope Chandra is one that can make the grade of being Miss HazzardAyre?
