Anybody connected to Bernie Ward tonight?
I've tried Windows Media Player and RealPlayer and neither one will connect to KGO. Are they having a problem with the streaming AGAIN?

2. Don't worry
The streaming problems always seem to be conveniently fixed just in time for Ronn "51 percenter" Owens show.

6. SHIT! I listen to Bernie and then Ray every night!
A couple of weeks ago, they had the same problem but it was on a weekend, and I called the station (FROM GEORGIA!) and asked if they knew they had a problem with their streaming. They said yes and it would be fixed on Monday...and it was.

What's the deal? I thought this was a fairly big station in Calif!

7. Mickey Mouse is up to some "school-kid pranks" again?
It is a very large 50,000 watt station. I've picked it up in Oregon, Reno, NV and Bakersfield, CA.

11. Well damn it! Tell Mickey to get his butt back to Disney land!!!!
It's bad enough when I have to deal with internet outages because of storms. I shouldn't have to deal with the techs at a big station not doing their job too!

Last night they were having problems too. It wouldn't link to Windows Media Player at all and the link to RealPlayer was lost every 15 minutes or so. Why didn't they fixx this today????

GRRRRRR!

9. Ahh, the advantages of living in the direct path of KGO's
50,000 watt flamethrower transmission signal. He's on fire tonight!!!

Sorry guys, you're misssing a classic Brother Bernie moment. A freeper is having his ass handed to himself trying to justify reasons for fighting the damn war in Iraq. This nation is chuck full of idiots. idiots and hypocrits!!!

12. Well, if you live there, would you please contact KGO and tell them
to get this fixed! As I posted above, I called a couple of weeks ago to tell them about the problem, and it was a weekend so they said it would be fixed on Monday. THIS IS MONDAY!!!!! What's their excuse now?

If you could call the station, I'd sure appreciate it!

13. You might try hooking up through the archives.
Edited on Tue Aug-23-05 12:50 AM by BrotherBuzz
Someone mentioned this as backdoor soultion to catching the program when the live stream was down. Just an idea and worth a try. Otherwise, I have to assume they know it's down, but it may be beyond their control to fix.

16. I would look in the archives if I could, but even though I donated
to DU last week, I don't have my star yet, so I can't look.

Can you tell me what the back door suggestion was?

17. Quick, try the archives now...
Edited on Tue Aug-23-05 01:07 AM by BrotherBuzz
They may just roll over one hour blocks and you could catch the begining of the show. The freeper meltdown is about ten- fifteen minutes minutes into the program.

21. That wasn't a clown, that was a Nazi...
A-hole that sat in for the Gene Burns program tonight, that goes by the name of Bill Wattenburg, or Dr Bill "the smartest person in the world". He's the biggest asswipe know-it-all on the west coast and has a regular KGO slot on weekends that is just, well, just, well,...CRAP.

Sorry my idea didn't work, I guess they roll the entire program over to the archives, not one hour blocks as I hoped.

22. I'm glad I get KGO on direct broadcast here in Oregon...
Bernie led one poor sucker down the primrose path tonight...really ripped him a new one. Another one of these callers who thought he had all the answers.

Bernie chewed and chewed and chewed.

23. That, Brother Bernie did! LOL
Cool, the KGO signal is directional so it shoots way up north and down south. I once caught the signal on a sailboat way down off the southern part of the Baja peninsula. Weak signal, but very clear.
