Default WiFi alternative to LPFM?

A podcast might be a good idea, too, come to think of it.
For small town broadcasting many times it doesn't have to be live. They
could start a commnity web page with local news and weather and links to
podcasts on different topics.

Yes

On the production computer you can install a Shoutcaster server (Free
download)

Then us this to create streams. The number of streams depends on the power
of your computer.

Then computers link to your production server and the port you have put
the
shoutcaster server on.

say 192.168.1.50:8000 where 192.168.1.50 is the IP address on your network
of your PC and 8000 is the port for the shoutcaster server.

Read the docs at http://www.shoutcast.com/

Is it possible to stream audio from a computer to a good wifi router and
broadcast that way to computers around you?

I was thinking of an earlier thread from someone who was looking for a
way
to broadcast to his neighbors in a small town.

What would be involved and how many people could tune in the stream at a
time?
