you for your excellent work.  I am looking for a fully-developed, beta, or alpha
open-source hardware platform for remote deployment to terrestrial fm
transmitters and streaming to general internet listeners.  Willing to
participate in development/beta testing of projects or possible $ support for an
existing project.  Able to beta in production fm environment.  Requirements
include lossless (compressed or not) and lossy streaming from a gpl pc based
rackmount server.
