I actually never finished that series. I am not sure if you’re reporting that you’re having problems with getting to the Sirius internet listening–or just stern.

I wrote that entry because at the time Stern wasn’t available on Sirius’ streaming services.

Anyhow, the way to set up Sirius for over the web streaming is to leave your satellite reciever unit at home and have the audio out pluged into your audio input on the back of your PC.

Then you want to run Winamp and set your computer up as a ShoutCast server. You choose the source to be the audio-in jack and with luck you’ll be broadcasting your sirius connection live over the web.

Shoutcast streams can be protected with a password, but the downside is you won’t be able to change channels unless you have someone at home to do it for you.

In January you wrote this about Sirius Radio:

“What to do for people like me, who don’t have an office with an outside window and want to listen to Stern or other non-streaming Sirius stations over the web?

“Stay tuned. in my next entry, I will describe how to listen to Howard Stern at work over the internet using your pre-exisiting Sirius subscription.”

I’ve looked, but can’t find anything more about Sirius in your columns. Have you got any more hints about how to listen to it successfully on the Internet?? I can’t get ANYTHING the last couple of days. Any idea what’s wrong?

Thanx,
Mary
