DIY Audio Computer: this page details the “Scrap Computer Audio Source Project,” for using a cheap used PC to stream out mp3s. One application for this ‘puter is for an unlicensed micropower radio station. (via pirateradio@about.com) This project is interesting because it relies on DOS for cheapness and stability–though the author notes that some of the younger kids might use linux. Not a novel project, but still useful ideas for making an automated pirate station–if the computer is cheap enough you can leave your studio unmanned. If your station is in a location that’s not also your home or office, then personal liability is minimized in the event the Federales find the station.
