Digging for Scanners on the Internet

If you're interested in Long Island, NY, try http://suffolkscanner.redirectme.net:8000/stream I don't know whether any software you use will be able to play it, but the Windows Media Player link on my site (http://www.webdingers.com/scanner.html) handles it. It works like a charm. Sounds like a Motorola Smartnet system. Here's what I did: #! /bin/sh mpg123 http://suffolkscanner.redirectme.net:8000/stream Those of you who are UNIX devotees will see that's a shell script, all be it a very simple one. I call it longisland so all I need to do is type longisland at the shell prompt and I am hearing it. Many thanks. -- Martin McCormick WB5AGZ Stillwater, OK Information Technology Division Network Operations Group |
