KTRT Stereo Audio and Internet Streaming Upgrade
Donation protected
Hi, I'm helping KTRT 97.5 The Root in Twisp, WA to upgrade their in-studio capabilities to improve signal strength and quality and to establish capabilities to stream the broadcast to the internet so that anybody anywhere with a device connected to the internet can listen to our very special community station.
We have determined that the best way to accomplish these goals is to purchase a turnkey piece of equipment: The Inovoincs Novia 272 processor. This processor will do the following:
- Generate a FM stereo signal. (The root is currently being broadcast in mono)
- Provide automatic gain control and limiting to boost the perceived signal strength and even out the volume level of the broadcast
- Make KTRT's signal quality competitive with the industry standard with multiband compression, EQ and Pre-Emphasis
- Add capability to stream the broadcast in real time to the internet
Back in the day when the station first opened and the studio was in the attic of Don's ceramics studio I had a radio show. I really appreciate KTRT and I've been dreaming of helping to make these upgrades for years.
We aim to purchase the equipment on Feb 5 to meet a target date of Feb 29 (leap year) to go live with the upgrade.
If you'd like to contribute to this effort you can tune in to the upgraded Root and know you helped make it happen! We'd really appreciate your contribution to support Community Radio!
