I'm sure people have recorded some interesting comms coming from the various live streams. How about a place to post them?

I would think it's best to edit them down, eliminating senstive information such as names of victims, telephone numbers, etc...

What do you think?

18Kbps?

The feeds sounded really great at the higher bit rates yesterday but could not accomodate the number of users trying to listen. Now we have multiple feeds capable of thousands of streams nowhere near capacity and it sounds how you would expect at that low rate, useable but lousy.

With only a few relays, dropping the rate down made sense but some very nice folks stepped up with many new relay streams today so did the quality get knocked a little to far down? If the main feeds were managed so relays and only relays were connecting, bumping the bitrates back up should be possible.
