    Hi everyone! I've been working on adding new songs to the EP Shoutcast station and have a pretty good range of songs up so far!
    I wanted to let you know about some cool features I found for it and also make sure everyone knows how to tune in!
    How to tune in:
    1. Visit the EP Radio Page
    2. Download this to play the stream on Winamp, iTunes, VLC Player, or Foobar2000
    3. Download this to play the stream on Windows Media Player
    4. Download this to play the stream on Real Player
    5. Download this to play the stream on QuickTime
    6. Download the Hoofsounds extension for Firefox and Chrome.
    I use Hoofsounds personally because I can listen easily at work with it! :blink:
    If there is no DJ on and you really want to hear a song from our library of music? No problem! Just visit this page and you can request any song in our library! :grin:

    Is there something you want to hear, but we don't have it in our library yet? Let us know! I'll try to keep up with music suggestions that you all give me for our Shoutcast station!

    If you need help getting tuned into the EPR Shoutcast let me know and I'll do my best to help you!

    Thanks for listening!

    I thought all these were already pretty well-known features about the shoutcast. In fact, it was originally installed because you could download it onto various players.

    Actually, the PVL request-a-song function is new (to me at least).
    It was a link on the radio page for little bit the other day, though it seems to have been removed, not sure why. I think there should be a link to that, and also links to the DJ times and other radio related stuff, just for convenience. Shouldn't be that hard to add.

    The DJ Schedule can be found here. And yes, there should be a link to it on the radio page... *nudges Tyro* ::S:
