[rfu-automation] Re: [grc] FROM THE HOMELESSNESS MARATHON (fwd)

[Andrew Ó Baoill]

As you'll have seen from Stephen's mail, we're going to be finalizing  
a decision on the matter at our meeting tomorrow (it ended up slipping  
through the cracks in our agendas too). I'm hopeful we'll decide to  
air at least some of the marathon.

Can you let me know some further information about how we can access  
feeds of the marathon? We're a small LPFM, so don't have satellite or  
an Audioport subscription. If there was a webfeed we could access,  
that would be helpful (as we can automate the process using our  
automation software). If not, we can work out something else, such as  
tapping in to feeds from other stations that are re-transmitting the  
broadcast.
