Seriously, KGO even has podcasts of most shows, as well as the stream.


Going from a shirt-pocket radio to a PC connected to two grids is
easier how?



You do what I do. Stream it then housecast it via one of the many
available home AM or FM transmitters. Then you can use your
shirt-pocket radio anywhere on your property.

95% of my radio listening is done this way now. I get the content *I*
choose from anywhere in the world, anywhere in my house. I'm no
longer limited to local stations, but still have the convenience of a
portable radio.

Best of both worlds.


That's even more convoluted. If i want to listen to KGO, anywhere west
of Phoenix, I wait 'til the sun goes down and tune any radio to 810 KHz.

I stream Nova M from Phoenix, and broadcast that, and KPFT on the
weekends, and Drone Zone all night long. I have a Drake SW2 by my head
when I sleep, usually on KGO or KKOH (which has been degraded by an
oldies station from Sedona).

But what if you don't want to "wait 'til the sun goes down"? Besides, the
only way to get KGO on the east coast (where I am) is to stream it.

Convenience and portability. It's a hassle to web stream. Try it while
backpacking.

That would be canned, not live.
