TWiRT Ep. 499 - Best Practices for Home Broadcasting with Bryan Jones

Many of us got our morning and afternoon hosts operating from their homes pretty quickly back in March. We had just a few days - or even just a weekend - to get our on-air talent connected from their kitchen tables or bedrooms, along with news and traffic reporters. Bryan Jones, Engineering Support Specialist at the Telos Alliance, helped dozens of broadcasters get operational from their homes. Now, we’re discussing longer-term home and remote broadcast operations. What are the best practices and key concerns from an IT perspective? What pitfalls should we avoid while improving these remote operations for long-term service? Plus, Chris Tobin describes his station’s unique remote operations setup.Show notes* Best remote desktop software of 2020: Paid and free choices for businesses* Kirk’s favorite remote access service: DWService.net* 4 VPN Types and When to Use Them* Chris’s favorite: DJB Radio playout softwareGuestBryan Jones - Engineering Support at The Telos AllianceHostsChris Tobin, IP-SolutionistKirk Harnack, The Telos Alliance, Delta Radio, & South Seas BroadcastingFollow Kirk on Twitter - @kharnackFollow TWiRT on Twitter - @TWiRTshow and FacebookSponsored byBroadcasters General Store, with outstanding service, saving, and support.
