The Voice of Bonne Bay
is being broadcast and webcast from
the old cottage hospital in Norris Point (May 12 - 24).
It should be stressed that we are webcasting
from a rural area - we try to ensure that even dial up
listeners are supported so we use a highly compressed
mono audio stream.
The Voice of Bonne Bay is webcast
- 7:00 am to 7:00 pm. Here's what you have to do
to listen in.
First you must have QuickTime player installed
on your computer - WIMP or REAL won't work.
If you hear music now, it is not the webcast,
but it means you already have QuickTime
installed on your computer.
If you have music playing,
go straight to step two : )
