Yeah, I know I've said it before. This time, I already got the server up and running, however! I'll be using a software called CentovaCast to run the station. DJs will still be able to get on the server for their shows like before, so don't worry about that. The server I got can run at a max of 64kbps, but you are still welcome to run at 24/32 or whatever you need to. CentovaCast will allow me to run the station 24/7, as they have a Auto DJ feature. It even has rules for playlists so we can do Power/Heavy/Standard/Light rotation! Right now, there are a few obstacles that I need to overcome to get the station fully functional for 24/7. The first one is that we need to come up with our rotation playlists, and the second is that I need to get all the songs needed for those playlists, and I have to convert all the MP3s to 64kbps. Another feature that I like for CentovaCast is that I can schedule shows in playlists and air them at scheduled times. So if you wanted to have a show re-air, you could just send me the playlist (can just be the names of the songs) and I can set that up to re-air during the week. ALSO, it tracks play counts, listener counts and all that, so we can still do a weekly chart based on the most played songs of the week. How killer is that? So, during the next few days and possibly week, I'll be working on getting things going!

The request thing was fun back in the day, hope it'll be part of this ;D Well the station is payed up for 3 months, and its actually not a bad price at all. I don't know if there will be an actually request thing. I have read about a way to do it, but I don't know enough about the software yet to do so. I know that there is a feature for OnDemand music though.

Just posted the new category for 20hitz, so be sure to check the Fusion Radio 102 board for that!
I am not working tonight, so I'm gonna spend a bunch of time getting my files converted to the right bit rate, and hopefully getting rotation started tonight.

Still working out the kinks in the rotation system, I think the big problem right now is there isn't enough songs in it, but I'm not sure.
Also, I'm planning on doing some special hours during the rotation, such as flashback-only hours a few times a day, and maybe dedicating an hour or two a day to new songs as well.
