Here's a link to SHOUTcast. The documentation there will walk you through starting your own internet radio station. It's pretty easy.\nhttp://www.shoutcast.com/support/docs/\n\nHere's mine:\nhttp://radioactivepictures.com/radio128k.pls

First you need the basic equipment.  Is this going to be used for broadcast, or internet radio?  You will need some type of mixer to start with.  Then depending on how you wish to play music, you will need CD players (at least two) A computer with a good music scheduling software package.  If you are looking to do everytrhing on the computer, you can get music a music library already on a hard disk, doing away with the need to have all the CD's laying around.  Then you need some quality Mic's. (you should be able to get away with two, you can always add more as needed. You will need some type of phone hybrid, to make taking phone calls over the air possible.  And most important, get a good coffee maker! We people in this business live off of that stuff.  If you need more help, you can always e-mail me.  Oh, I almost forgot, always have a good supply of duct tape on hand.

Call up the station and ask. They have playlists that all the DJs can access. Ask them and they can probably help you out better than here where most people are not local to you.

If you are just listening to music, it would be a lot easier to get a boom box.  If you want 2-way communications, a CB can be gotten at Radio Shack.\n\nIf you want to establish a radio station, low power FM is the way to go.  It costs about $250 k to set up the station and about $100 k per year to operate it.

Go to Launch.com or Launch radio....they have just about everything there.\n\nIf you have windows media player (if you are using a PC, you probably do) (even if it is MS), there is a radio player built into it too for just about any genre of music.

I agree with the guy below about LAUNCHcast on Yahoo! I've tried all the services and theirs is the best. I spend about 3/4 hours on it every day at work and sometimes hook it up to the speakers at home. The personalised station is great for finding new music. Maybe that user uses the US site though - i've never had any restrictions on the UK one.

The FCC has a fact sheet on how to apply for a broadcast radio station: http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/howtoapply.html\n\nThe list of fees is about 40 pages long, there are different fees for different types of applications: http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DOC-260618A1.pdf

"dose any one know how to start a radio station?"\n\n\nYes, I do.  Lots of other people do too.\n\nI doubt very much that you are an investor or entrepreneur.\n\nI suspect that you just want to play around, and play around without a licence or any knowledge whatsoever.\n\nSo I won't help you, and I hope that anyone who has any knowledge (and common sense) won't help you either.
