After some upgrades to both
my equipment and to Splitech
Internet Solutions
servers, I have returned the Sheboygan
County Live Scanner back
to said servers with unlimited connection capacity! Also.... **NEW**
I have launched the Ozaukee
County Live Scanner
which feeds the Ozaukee County, WI trunked radio system live as well! Both
of these feeds can be reached on the Live Scanner page or at www.wifirefeeds.com.
Enjoy!!

Hey all.. The
Sheboygan
County Live Scanner is still running however the URL will be changing frequently and you must access
it by visiting this home page and clicking the Live Scanner Link on the
left. I had to do this because a couple of outside web masters were using
a direct URL to stream the feed on their sites without permission. I also
was having continued issues with pushing the feed to a server so I have set my
own now and it is running excellent so far.

Happy 2008! Some
brief updates since I have a little time today. Deleted a bunch of dead
scanner links and also axed some advertising blocks. I'm working on a new
non-frames layout I'll try to get on here soon. Sheboygan
County Live Scanner
is still running smoothly other than an occasional server link drop which can be
expected. If it is down, check back soon because someone usually lets me
know and I restart the stream. Congratulations to
the GREEN
BAY
PACKERS
!!!!

I made some updates and
corrections to the web page today. Sorry I have not updated much as I have
been very busy and out of town on weekends for the most part this summer.
I have corrected the Sheboygan
County Live Scanner network
issues and that page has been put back to normal as well. I've also
updated and added some Sheboygan area weather and storm spotting URL's in the
Weather section to the left so please check that out. I'll hopefully do
some more work on this in the coming months. I have a new layout I want to
use but just no time.

****NOTICE TO LIVE SCANNER FEED
LISTENERS****
The URL for the
Sheboygan
County Live Scanner has
changed. You must update your media player links by visiting the live page
here or at www.wifirefeeds.com
and re-opening the feed to your browser or player. The feed has been moved
to a new server provided by
Splitech
Internet Solutions
thus increasing the number of connections and eliminating frequent chances of
network errors caused by trouble on my end. Splitech offers
some nice deals on hosting if wish to have your feed or other live broadcast
available to the world. Thanks and enjoy!

Doing some tinkering and
updating today. Updated Wisconsin
Incident Alert URL for
new Google Groups home. Screw Yahoo groups. They are continuously
having problems delivering messages in a timely manner so we changed it to
Google which so far has been 100% reliable. I'll also edit/delete some of
the links not working and probably also fix the Propagation Tools if I get time.
10/04/06
I'll be making some changes
this month in the web page structure. Also will be adding some info. and
files regarding the new Uniden BCD996T Multi-trunking P25 Digital scanner.
This scanner is king of the hill now! Also will be adding a section on my
northwoods cabin QTH where I do plenty of radio things as well. Looking to
get a live Marinette County scanner feed going as well so stay tuned!
06/21/06
>>> FYI
>>> The Sheboygan
County Live Scanner will
be off line for a few days for some shack maintenance. Please look for it
to be back up this weekend at the latest, maybe sooner. Sorry for any
inconvenience!
06/20/06
Had a chance on Sunday 6/18
to get a decent look at a very powerful thunderstorm cell that moved though
northern Sheboygan County. Plenty of rotation however no funnels ever
dropped down. Take a look at the photos
of the storm. Very
breathtaking display of clouds! I also updated my 6-Meter
grids worked map since
the other one dated back to 2004. Enjoy those summer band conditions and
hope to hear you on 50 MHz!!
05/01/06
Happy May! I did some
work on the APRS
& Packet Page
tonight. Not sure if this is
how I am going to leave it or not. I had some inquiries about Web Page
design recently. If you or your organization is interested in having a web
page similar to this one or of any different design, please E-mail
me and we could work out a
deal. I would be happy to design a page for you at a reasonable
cost. Keep in mind you must have server space which most Internet
Providers give you these days with your account.
04/30/06
Today I went through the
Scanner
Links and Ham
Radio Links to do
some updating of dead links and also added several new links. I added a
listing of local Fire & Law Enforcement web pages to my Scanner Links
section and added a few more local links in the Ham Radio Links area.
Those of you that had links here prior that you don't see now, please contact me
to get them back because I deleted any non-working links. Also, please E-mail
me if there is a link you would like added. I did some other misc.
cleaning around the site and also please check back often for my live weather
station which will be coming on-line shortly. 73!
03/31/06
Ok, now Charter was messing
with my IP again and the scanner was offline of course while I wasn't around
AGAIN. As of Midnight April 1, it is working 100%. I will make a
habit of checking more often to make sure. Networking sucks...
03/22/06
I apologize to those of you
who have been having problems getting access to the live scanner feed. I
have been having some network issues where the router keeps re-setting and
changing local IP Addresses on the network which screws up the port
forwarding. I try to check on it as often as possible and it seems to do it
when I'm not home of course. Again, sorry if this has been an
inconvenience. I will have to research further to possibly remedy
this. Happy March in Wisconsin!! YUCK! :-)
02/10/06
Ahhh, February in
Wisconsin! Plenty of time to hide indoors and do stupid stuff like work on
your web page! Ok, I've got the scanner and antenna set-up going that I
have been planning all along for the Sheboygan
County Live Scanner I'm
now running a Uniden BC780 with ARC software for audio AND video feed! The
scanner is also hooked into the outside antenna network so reception for the
entire lakeshore area is outstanding. Enjoy and check back for more
updates!!
01/29/06
Today I added the list of
Wisconsin Area Live Scanner Audio Feeds to my Scanner Links
page. Please let me
know of you have any trouble with these and also E-Mail
me if you have a scanner feed you would like posted or if you know of any other
one's for Wisconsin or bordering counties in adjacent states. Thanks and
enjoy!!
01/28/06
I took a little time to
clean up the pages a bit tonight. The unused navigation links have been
removed and things are laid out just a little differently. Still fiddling
with web design and getting used to it! Look around and see what I've
played with. I Also added the preliminary APRS
& Packet Page
design and a link to my WebShots
Photo Album
01/17/06
I made some additions and
upgrades to the site today. First of all I would like to thank Carl
- KA9WYK for directing
me to IRFANVIEW;
some very nice freeware for viewing and editing photos. I was easily able
to scale down some of my rather large digital images so they load quicker on the
web. The Sheboygan
County Live Scanner is
running smoothly and is in some beta-testing yet but seems ok. Check out My
Home Shack section for
some new photos and changes to that section. I also added a brief info
page about My
Mobile Set-Up and added
some local Wisconsin distributors to the Ham Radio Links
01/07/06
Hello everyone, Happy
2006! I have an audio only Sheboygan County area scanning feed up and
running again. So far, so good. The feed is Sheboygan Co. Trunked
radio audio, Manitowoc County and City fire repeaters, Calumet Co. fire, Fond du
lac Co. fire, Ozaukee Co. fire paging, regional medical helicopters, and various
mutual aid stuff from around the area. Any law enforcement tactical or
drug operations on the TRS are NOT broadcast to protect officer safety and
confidentiality. Listen Here: Sheboygan
County Live Scanner
I will be making some
upgrades and updates to the web site shortly also. So please check back
for new stuff. I would also like to thank everyone who expressed
their sympathy to the passing of my father recently. Thank you to the
Sheboygan Falls Fire Dept. for the kind gift.

Well, after several weeks of
troubleshooting the online scanner project, I've decided to take it down for
public use and it will be available only on a private server to specific persons
I wish to allow in. Someone thought it was really "neat" to get
in and crash the feed daily while you thought I was at work. Must be nice
to have that kind of time on your hands. Glad I was so important to you
that you took some time out of your day every afternoon for me. Anyway,
have fun trying to find it now. Personally I could give a fuck really
because I don't need to provide a public feed. Just thought it would be
nice and I'm sorry it has to be this way but one loser always ruins it for
everyone.
07/11/05
I FINALLY had some time to
do some work in the shack here. I've got the Sheboygan
County Live Scanner up
and running now. Please be advised that due to bandwidth considerations, I
have to limit the number of connections. So if you are trying to listen
and don't get on, it's more than likely at it's limit. Feel free to check
that out. I'll also be uploading photos of my shack and mobile shack later
this week so stick around for that. Thanks for stopping by!

Now they want to start drilling up the Arctic for more
damn oil. I notice a common pattern here.. Bush, Oil, Money...
Keep raising the gas prices! Go ahead! Maybe we'll get those
electric cars on the road yet. You can't solve your oil crisis by
hacking up the Arctic which won't give you any oil for 10 years anyway!
Please help to stop this nonsense --> Click
here to save the Arctic
Wildlife.

Greetings Everyone.
Sorry that I haven't made any updates to the page in quite a while. I've
been very tied up with family issues as well as some medical concerns of my
own. Hopefully things will settle down a bit and I can get solid focus
back on my daily life. I'm going to start a section on my page of my
photos with hopefully some organization to it. I have a decent digital
camera to snap some images with and I'm having some fun learning about all
that. So look for that in the near future. Other than that, thanks
for checking and THINK SPRING!!!

Happy Holidays to Everyone! It's super cold
here for this time of year. Been below zero all week at night and wind
chills have been rough. Now they are calling for 40's and rain by mid
week. That's typical Wisconsin weather for ya! Congratulations to
the GREEN
BAY
PACKERS
as they beat the Purple Girls up in the tunnel Friday for yet another NFC North
Division Championship!! I made some minor Web Page updates
tonight. Some graphic details page-wide, updated the Scanner Links
page ,and I'm still debating on what to do on the Weather pages. I added a
link to MASA (Milwaukee Area SKYWARN) and WFRV News. Check
back often!!
12/19/04
It looks like Winter has settled in here with some pretty bitter cold temps and
some brisk North West winds. A little blowing snow but nothing really. Now
I hope it's winter and stays winter until April. No more of this 45° in
January crap anymore. Keep those lakes frozen and them snowmobile trails
open! NO RAIN!! As far as the Web Page, I opened up the GeoCaching
page tonight. Some Great insight into the outdoor hobby and some links to
getting your own GPS Equipment & software at great prices. I
also added a convenient Google Seach box in the main navigation frame to search
the web. Google is the search engine KING. Thanks for stopping by!
12/18/04
Ahhh!! The weekend is finally here! I've been impressed with the
rare winter Es openings on 6 lately. Can't complain but you really have to
have an ear open 24 hours a day to catch these openings. They seem to be
short lived but any opening is better than none at all! I managed to bag a
couple new states last week. Anyway, on to the web page... I added a Hit
Counter and some Google search items. Also added a starting page for the Operating Activities
section. It only shows some of my grid maps but I'll be doing more with
that in the near future. I made the
Ham Radio Links
section a bit easier to read by request and I agree totally, it needed it.
Thanks for the tip!
12/17/04
After some hair pulling tonight, I managed to get a few updates done that I
wanted. Check out the Propagation Tools
link in the Amateur Radio category. I set up a console to shuffle through
various propagation forecasting tools and DX spots. Should come in handy
for my own personal use during 6 meter activity if nothing else. Please E-Mail
me if there's a DX tool you think would be a good addition.
I made a few other technical changes that nobody probably would even notice if I
don't mention it so I won't. Just some details I learned how to fix
tonight. Also added a Google Search engine banner to the bottom of this
page so please make use of that to search the web. Thanks!!
12/16/04
Had some time to complete the Ham Radio Links
portion of the page tonight. Also put in the interactive Wisconsin
Weather Data & Info console from IWIN. This is
very cool for up to the minute NWS data. I'll be adding a ton of
Weather & SKYWARN stuff later this week. If you would like a link to
your page added, please E-Mail
me and I will add them to the page. Also, please add www.qsl.net/k9drx
to your links section if you could. Much appreciated. Goodnight!
12/15/04
Did a few more quick page additions before work today. Things are coming
along slowly but surely. Pages Added: WI Incident Alert,
Ham Radio Links,
Local Forecast.
More to come soon!
12/14/04
Well, Here it is!! I finally started working on the new web page.
Getting used to Web Design and file management has been a bit of a learning
process but I'm finally getting the hang of it. I have the basics set up
now and just got started on a couple of the pages. I will be adding more
every day and hopefully get that on-line scanner audio up soon. Feel free
to take a look around. Pages Added:
