Having some connection issues with the ISP today. I’ll try to launch the AUTO DJ if I can access it via other means. Sorry for the interruptions in service.

Thanks to your listenrship KONA Radio has now surpased 12,000 Total Listener hours per month. In addition to our inclusion on iTunes in the Golden Oldies section, we are now listed in the “Hits of the 70s 80s and 90s” . Thanks for your patronage!
I’ve just set up and put into place the new computer for KONA Radio. The previous computer was pushing 5 years old and it was time for a change. I did not want to have a catastrophic disaster and then scramble around for a fix. If you hear any problems with the stream please let me know. Email me at Ravishal.Bentham@gmail.com.
iTunes. Still listed and it’s really boosted our numbers. Our TLH (total listener hours) are well over 10,000 per month. YAY! Look for us under the Golden Oldies section.
New music. Way too much to mention. There are now about 6700 tracks which equates to about 17 days of nonstop music.

2008 saw a lot of growth in KONA Radio’s playlist and listenership. We went from about 5800 tracks to over 6400 further expanding our 60s and 70s tunes. In November our station was added to iTunes under the Golden Oldies category. Listener rates have nearly doubled from 6 to 12 listeners over a 24 hour period. Total Listener hours went from 4,000 to nearly 9,000 hours a month. Thanks for your support and keep listening!

Yet again I am faced with ISP issues. Seems when outside temps are very warm I lose my DSL for 10 seconds every 20-30 minutes at a whack. At it’s worse on SUnday I had to activate the AUTO-DJ and stream music from there. The quality is not as good due to a lack of sound processing, but hey it beats dead air. I hope to have our issues resolved soon.

As you may well know from time to time I’ve experienced outages due to power loss and ISP issues. When KONA is off the air I can’t help but feel I am losing listeners. T o counteract this I will be employing an Auto-DJ feature in the near future. What that entails is uploading content to a server so that when my stream goes down the AuotDJ kicks in and plays content at the server. I anticipate acquiring about 2 gigabytes or so to cover lost time from power loss, DSL connectivity issues and station maintenance. More on that when it gets implemented.
New tunes added the past few weeks from these artist:
REM, PartyBen, The Temptations, Stanford Townshend Band,Wilson Pickett, U2,Tom Jones, Rod Stewart, The Fatback Band, Ultravox, Steve Earl,The Knickerbockers, Arthur Conley, Edgar WInter,The Zombies,Lesley Gore, Wayne Newton, The Stylisitics, Joni Mitchell,Malo and many more covers and such.
