Tower, we're still holding short. Tower. Tower?

Skype is still dead. So no UCAP recording this morning. Maybe tonight, maybe not till Sunday. It's gonna be a beautiful weekend. Go flying.

BTW, we're starting to consider other VOIP systems.

Have you thought about SIP? Set yourself up an Asterisk server (freeware) and host your own VOIP system. Then you can use a softphone like X-lite (also freeware) and talk all you want.

I'm looking at the Gizmo SIP system. It looks promising, and is mostly turnkey.

I've been looking at Asterisk for a client, and I think it might be a bit of overkill for our little podcast.

I'm also considering TalkShoe, which is a completely different kind of solution.

From Jack's post, all I know is that "Gizmo" was a character in a movie -- with an Axton named Hoyt...

An asterisk looks like * ...

And TalkShoe was something Agent Smart did...so he always wore clean socks...

BWTHDIK?

Read the previous comment from UCAP Dave, and you'll get an idea of why I'm reluctant to make a change to the tech we're using.

So, folks, looks like we have our clearance...taxiing to the mic...expect to arrive late tonight...

Hopefully, Skype will still be working...

Yes, it's looking good to record later tonight (Friday). But just to be clear, the ep probably won't make it online till Sat night at the earliest. Hey, I get to go flying too.
