Title: Listening at work - solutions?
Post by: wadesworld on March 09, 2017, 11:36:57 AM
Was planning on listening to the game through my work computer.  Turns out that I can't get the audio for 540 AM as everything seems to be blocked.  I'd do it through my phone but with the stupid headphone jack-less iPhone7 and not having my iPhone7 headphones with me at work it'd have to be over the speakers, and I don't really want to do that.

Anybody have any kind of back way into getting Home Team's call through my work computer?

Thanks in advance.

Do you have a content filter at work?  Can you stream other radio stations?

Download the TuneIn Radio app and play ESPN 540 through your phone. You can stream it to your PC or use an old fashioned audio cable like me.

Hotspot your phone and connect your pc to that and listen to stream.

TuneIn Radio for me.

Just hoping people don't think 1-4 is a proper time to come to the ER... because there won't be much help for them.

Sorry, I'm more or less an idiot when it comes to PCs. What do you mean by "you can stream it to your PC?"

Yeah I was trying that.  I'm all logged in but then the video doesn't load. Might be an Adobe/Flashplayer issue?  I really don't know PCs at all beyond what I need to use for work purposes.

Oh well.  Maybe I'll just rely on the gameday chatters to keep me updated.

How long from the end of the Nova game to our tip?  Will we tip right at 2:30ET?

Trying to time my lunch departure perfectly.
