Title: KDFW feeds not working
Post by: listenliveatc on November 05, 2015, 12:05:56 PM
Hello!

For the past few weeks most of the LiveATC streams for the KDFW airport haven't been working. They show that they are up but no audio is ever heard.

The KDFW tower link works but the audio is faint and scratchy most of the time. KDFW West Ground has similar results. Remaining links are inop.

I have tested the various links from multiple computers and get the same results.

Please advise if this can be resolved.

Thank you for this wonderful Aviation resource!

I hear a lot of activity on many of the DFW feeds.  The reception may be a little down - which we will investigate as this is one of our feeds run by us and hosted near DFW.  We will investigate all the connections and receivers and see what's going on.  The reception should be better but there is not dead air, as far as I can tell.

Thank you for the quick response Dave!

It's interesting because prior to a few weeks ago the DFW East Ground freq was always busy since it also included the clearance freq. The Regional approach freq's also were normally only busy.

In addition to trying to listen on a Win7 and Win10 PC using Flash Player I also use an iPhone with the Safari browser and built in MP3 player and receive the same issues.

Hope this helps.

Great job getting all of the KDFW feeds broadcasting again Dave!

I don't think they have sounded this clear and strong as long as I have been listening to them over the last few years.

What ended up being the issue?

Thanks again!

Hello again Dave and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!

Just a heads up. I think the KDFW preamp might have gone offline again. For the last two days I haven't heard anything out of the KDFW Del/East Ground feed and many of the other feeds have static and low volume.

Thanks again for a great service you are providing!
