We have one or two prospects in the works.  Stay tuned.  No ETA.

Note: One of them should be up next week.  It will be dedicated to RDU Tower only.  Receive site is very close to the airport.

I want one too. So I ordered a scanner today. No clue yet if I'm close enough to get good reception at RDU. But if I can I will set up a feed. (And if I can't -- well I can still take my scanner to the observation park and listen to planes I guess!  :-D )

The new feed failed to work since the receiver location has windows treated with special RF-shielding.  45dB of attenuation at 900MHz and plenty enough at airband to ensure receiver silence. 

It will be relocated to a rooftop in the same area soon.  No ETA yet.
