Our server monkies have been hard at work getting the server all fixed up and running, and it seems that we've finally got the spit, duct tape and binder twine in alignment, and we're back up on the air. Thanks everyone for your patience during this transition time.

RFP HQ is moving! We will be moving into our new digs sometime this weekend, and it may be a week or two before we get everything set back up again. Our server monkies will be working night and day to get RFP back up and streaming. In the meantime, you can still listen to RFP on Trent Radio - 92.7 FM in Peterborough and area.

One of the joys of running entirely on spit and duct tape is the constant battle with networks, switches, routers, cables and all the computer gear that ties them all together. Sometimes, the spring goes 'sproing' and things grind to a halt. Sorry for the outage folks, and things should be back to normal now.

Boy how time flies when you're having fun! July 24th 2009 marks five years of Radio Free Peterborough on the air! This has been a slow year, with most of the project's features in a holding pattern. The Free Music section of the website got taken down because of some bandwidth hogs, we lost a few friends, and made some new ones.

Sorry about that folks - a networking snafu here at RFP HQ prevented access to the stream server for a few days. Everything is back online now. Oops..

We mourn the passing of Peterborough's own Al Kirkcaldy. Al lost his battle with cancer last thursday night (20 Feb 2009) and will be missed by all who knew him. Our sincere condolences to Al's loved ones - he was a true champion of Live Music in Peterborough.

24 July 2008 marks our fourth birthday as a project here at RFP. Hard to believe!

Thanks to everyone who has helped us get this far, and who continue to help us out when things get tough. Special thank you mentions to Brian Sanderson for his continued excellence, Jill Staveley for her tireless work with Trent Radio and sending us lots of great tracks, and to John K. Muir - GM of Trent Radio for all of his help.

After much gnashing of teeth, touring with rock musicians, replacing of broken motherboard, adding some additional storage space and rebuilding the Linux kernel manually a few times I've finally got the darned stream server back up and running. We still have to bring up the historical feature artist streams, but all the main streams are now up and running normally.

Well folks, we've been off the air from RFP HQ (still on the air from Trent Radio) for a while now - our main stream server failed. However, I am making progress in bringing the dead server back from the other side. After some surgery and parts replacements, it turns out that the onboard network card is not recognized by any of the different Linux distributions I tried, and I have no floppy drive on that machine with which to inject drivers during the install. Whee.

Months have passed, another year, another Sunday; seems I gravitate here on Sundays. A warm winter night with fog rolling across the fields, and creeping through the trees toward me... what finer time to kick back and enjoy? What finer time to reaffirm that magic does indeed exist?..
