    Congrats on the station ....... sounds pleasant :D

    Now for the question ...... I did not find any link to use to play the station in an application other than using a browser. So is there such a link? Please post it if there is such, thanks.

    I do not listen to radio on the PC using a browser .... have a selection of radio stations in a separate application, and would like to add yours to my list.

    Best of luck with it.

    regards.

    Hi Johnboy1951 :)

    If you download Winamp you can play the station without having to log in to the site or as I do myself, I have it on iTunes as well & the link appears as a track in the library so all I have to do is click on the "TRACK" & it automatically starts the radio.

    Hope that helps! :)

    Sorry, no it doesn't help :(

    Thanks for the suggestion ...... I got the stream URL so all is well ..... thanks again.

    For those who, like me, prefer to use a specific app for radio listening, here is the stream .....

    I'm surprised any web radio stations still exist with the IMRO crackdown.

    They are charging like 10,000 - 20,000 a year for a license to broadcast on the web, forcing all small stations to shut down.

    And that was even before the three American counterparts got involved with the fees they charge.

    I think it is insane that you can't run a small local web radio station without paying tens of thousands of euros a year.
