Bates County Live officially adds audio counterpart...

In order to expand our local media services, Bates County Live has added a formal  internet based radio station www.WIFI-FM.com which is home based here in Bates County. Currently, the station is playing 60's rock and roll oldies; we have considered a strait news and talk format with no music. However, we are very welcome to suggestions on what format might be best suited for our local listeners.


Although WIFI-FM is currently playing a pre-recorded mix, we have the ability to go live at any time, at any location where internet (wireless or other) is available. This means we can stream an event, such as a football game, grand opening, etc. live all over the world, literally. A perfect solution for those who are not in the area, or otherwise unable to attend. 


Likewise, we are working to add podcasts (pre-recorded) audio news and events to our web site which you may listen to at your convenience. More information regarding podcasts will be coming in the near future. In the past, we have covered some events with recorded video news, which we will continue to add as time goes on. At this time, there are no plans for live video feeds.


In the meantime, we welcome comments regarding WIFI-FM, including any problems you may have connecting to the station. Inability to connect may mean that we need to up the bandwidth necessary to accommodate added listeners. You may contact us by email or phone at 913-669-5848.
