Scanner Feed Host

As of late June 2009, all Cape Cod feeds are hosted at the Radio Reference Website. The direct link to the page is http://www.radioreference.com/apps/audio/?ctid=1213. This has taken a serious load off of the bandwidth at my house, as the feeds were previously hosted here. Due to the professional setup at RR each feed is capable of handling a very large amount of listeners which is beneficial during breaking events. Thanks to Lindsay Blanton and Gordon Edwards of Radio Reference for providing this free service for feeds.
