Still working on my LPFM radio station, www.kpbj.fm. We launched our regular online stream and have secured a site for our transmitter.

The transmit site is in the Verdugo hills and will need to be off grid. We're going to need about $20k to get the entire transmit system setup (including a solar/battery backup system).

I've also been working on our web infrastructure. The site is built with Haskell and HTMX. The stream is Icecast, and stream scheduling is done using an internal schedule system in the web app and LiquidSoap (so no external tools like airtime, libretime, or azuracast).

HTMX :)

Yeah I'm pretty happy with HTMX. I first cut my teeth on programming in the early 2000s with LAMP stack then Ruby on Rails and Django. It feels pretty great to be able to do a web 2.0 style application but still get most of the functionality of a SPA.

Checkout DataStar, it's also a hypermedia web framework but it subsumes the functionality of htmx, is faster, more efficient and fits inside 11 KiB. It uses SSE + brotli streaming compression to achieve compression ratios up to 4000x. It makes the web client completely stateless. Building a webapp cannoy be simpler really.

		that sounds really cool but i've already made a commitment to HTMX, at least for the foreseeable future. My main goal here is building a physical radio station.
