Patrick van den Hoek lives in Amsterdam, yet he owns and engineers his 13 radio stations in Spain. What’s more, Patrick has implemented several clever engineering techniques to solve audio and listener experience problems on these stations. See if Patrick’s engineering “hacks” might be useful for you and your radio stations!
Show notes:
- We started with Chris Tarr referencing Dr. Clayton Forrester from MST3K
- Chris mentioned the DEVA Radio Explorer II
- Patrick uses the Diversity Delay on the Omnia.9sg to sync his STL links.
- Basic info on RDS (Radio Data System)
