08 Jan 01 - 05:59 PM (#371137) Subject: Radio Scotland Online From: Scabby Douglas Don't know if anyone else has mentioned it, but BBC Radio Scotland is now online. Archie Fisher's Travelling Folk show is on Thursday 1900-2100 UK time, and repeated on Saturday from about 2100. Celtic Connections is on a couple of times a week in the evenings, and in the afternoons, Ian Anderson's show is an eclectic mix of Classical/Folk/Country and whatever. Worth a listen. The site is http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/radioscotland/ Enjoy a listen.... Cheers |

Archies's program is well worth checking out, he plays a huge range of folk music, not just traditional Scottish. Roll on Thursday. Oh shit , I have just realised I will be working, due to the time difference. Can you record internet radio to hard disk? Murray |

08 Jan 01 - 11:40 PM (#371286) Subject: RE: Radio Scotland Online From: Thyme2dream Wow-thanks,Scabby Doug for the info! I just checked the schedule Murray-you may be okay...they replay Archie Fisher's show @10:05pm GMT on Saturdays. I also noticed they have a piping show at 8pm GMT Saturday (OH, and football in the afternoon as well-cool!) |

09 Jan 01 - 01:34 AM (#371323) Subject: RE: Radio Scotland Online From: Barry T That piping program... Pipeline... is excellent! I listened to it for the first time this Saturday past and taped it directly from my sound card to my cassette deck.
With my clunker PC I was able to get a streaming signal of 20 kbps, but the sound is still adequate. Faster PCs should be able to get the stereo quality and 40 kbps. |

Yes you can. All you need is an adaptor cable to go from stereo mini to RCA plugs. (Get that at any Radio Shack store.) I used the (amplified) signal from the speaker jack, but if you have a pre-amp you could simply tap into the line output from the sound card. I am blessed with RCA plugs on my sound card, so connecting to my tape deck was a no-brainer.
Just run a test recording to find which works best for you... and don't wait till 10 minutes before the show starts like I did! ;-) Also experiment with sound card volume and record volume settings. You don't want to crank things up so high that you're getting background noise from the sound card. |
