I know there is a lot of guys out there who are really fascinated by the people down radio show and always wish to have one, including me. Well, now you can get your own radio show and your own radio station.

This tutorial required a bit of your computer skills to setup your radio station.

To begin with, you need ShoutCast, Winamp, and a good internet connection to host your radio station.

First, get you need Winamp, it’s a free software, you can easily download it here. Then get Shoutcast D.N.A.S. You also need Shoutcast DSP plug-in for Winamp.

Now, after installing Winamp, install Shoutcast D.N.A.S and then Shoutcast DSP plugin for Winamp. Now go to C:Program FilesSHOUTcast (or your Winamp installation directory) and find sc_serv.ini and open it in Notepad.

When you open the file in Notepad, find “Password=changeme” and add what ever password you want in place of “changeme” leaving the quotes intact. Ill choose “gravityblue”.

Then find “PortBase=8000” and change “8000” to what ever port you like, may be “3344”, and then save the file. Now open sc_serv.exe in C:Program FilesShoutcast.

Now, open Winamp and press Ctrl + P, you will find DSP/Effect of the left side, click on it. On the right side, double click on “Nullsoft Shoutcast Source DSP v1.9.0” and a window will pop up. Click on the Encoder Tab and choose “MP3 Encoder” and at the encoder settings choose 96kbps, 44100kHz, Stereo.

Now, go to Output. Find the Output configuration group. At the address put your ip address, click here to find out your ip address, and at the port, put in the same port you used in sc_serv.ini (3344). At the password, put in the same password you used earlier (gravityblue) and then click the yellow pages button. At the description field, put in the station name you want, like let it be Gravity Blue Radio. Then put in the URL of your website, you can also add genres you want to play on your radio.

You are almost done now, put in the music you want to be played on your Radio Station and your station is up. You can share your radio station by giving your friends the link below and they can listen the music you play in your winamp:

http://yourip:yourport/listen.pls.

Also, when you close your winamp, your Radio station will be down, so you need to keep your winamp running as long as you want your radio station to be up.

Share your radio stations link on the comments below… Enjoy. =)
