We thank you for understanding that as a public radio station, our first priority by both community mission and FCC mandate is over the air broadcasting. This requires that our technical budget must be used foremost to preserve the integrity of our on-air signal.

This means we do not have unlimited capacity for internet listeners. Connection failures and skipping audio will occur when too many users are trying to connect at once.

While you are always welcome to contact us, we will respond with troubleshooting advice to the best of our ability. However, we do have the following troubleshooting hints available to assist listeners on their own.

  • Connections already in use. WEMU does not have the resources to deliver an unlimited amount of live streams over the web. It is possible, at any given time, all the available stream connections may be in use by other listeners.
