Due to the recent changes over at Radionomy, Celtic Radio has made the decision to move our streaming partner over to SonixFM. Our broadcast is now based in Canada with full license and royalty coverage.

We will still maintain a presence on Radionomy with channels rotating some of our best track selections, but our main live channels will move over to the SonixFM platform over the next few weeks.

The first big benefit of this move is NO MORE ADVERTISEMENTS! Radionomy required 2 minutes of their advertising for every 30 minutes of music, so in our opinion this will be very beneficial to our listeners.

Highlander Radio is now operating from Canada on the SonixFM platform. Be sure to use our website or APP to get the latest links to the broadcast. You might have an old link saved from Radionomy, so the currently playing song on our website will not be the one you are listening to.

SonixFM uses a patented network called AnyCastIP that ensures the broadcast is heard in the same audio quality regardless of where you are located. Developed in partnership with Sony, the technology is found in cell phones, computers, Xbox, PlayStation, Roku any more devices.

Over the next few weeks we will move Celtic Moon, Celt-Rock-Radio and Celtic Dance Tavern over to SonixFM and will post a message here once the move is completed for those channels.

I am a little confused here… I use the “listen now” link on celticradio.net to listen to the music. That link still directs me to Radionomy were the track information for the song playing differs from the track information that celticradio.net provides on the website. (Radionomy’s information is correct for the streaming song) Because of the discrepancy, I went directly to SonixFM.com to find the correct stream, but the streaming song there is the same song playing on Radionomy.

Has the transition for the main channel to SonixFM.com not yet occurred, or am I doing something incorrectly? I am in the USA if the location matters for streaming purposes.

Thank you for your efforts to keep the music flowing!!! note.gif

Are you listening to Highlander Radio? The same thing is playing on both the site and the app for me. If you're listening to the other channels, the post stated those will be moved over in the next few weeks and in the meantime, you'll be listening to tracked music. When those channels go live, an update will be posted here.

If you're listening to Highlander Radio and not hearing the same thing both here and on the app, then you'll need to clear the app cache.

I am trying to listen to Highlander Radio. I checked the app on my phone and it will play the same songs celticradio.net (on my computer) shows the track information for. I listen at work through my computer and when I go through the celticradio.net website and click on the provided “click here to listen now” button, it takes me to http://celticradio.one/free_web_player.html . This link is still playing the Radionomy stream (for me at least). Is there another link I need to go through because when I search for Highlander Radio on SonixFM.com it plays the same stream as Radionomy (It also states that Namibia is the country of origin for the station on SonixFM)

FYI… I did some digging around and cleared out some browsing history, cookies and the cache. That worked! When I click on the “listen now” button, the website now says "Officially Licensed under SonixCast!" instead of Radionomy.

Thank you WallaceGal!

Just a quick note that we now have available Celtic Dance Tavern on the SonixFM platform. This now means that Highlander Radio and Celtic Dance Tavern have no advertisements other than our own self-promotion ads and ads by musicians.

Our app and mobile site have been updated. So Canadian listeners now have more options.

We are going to fine tune these new streams, get them listed on other directories and see how stable SonixFM is before we move Celtic Moon or Celt-Rock-Radio on to that platform.

Hi guys and gals, today when I try to listen it plays for two seconds then nothing. The player shows it's still playing. Oddly every time I try, the music is the same two seconds of music no matter who it shows is playing. I cleared everything and the same results. Is it me or are we still working bugs out?

Highlander Radio and Celtic Dance Tavern through the Celtic Radio app is showing Offline for me. Maybe they're working on something on the Sonix side. Celtic Moon and Celtic Rock are playing but they have not been migrated over yet, so I'm thinking that the problem is on the Sonix side and as soon as they've made whatever adjustments they're making, both stations will be live again. CR would know better, of course, but that's my guess.

Why thank you kindly WallaceGal for the observation. It's nice to know that you're not alone howling at the moon.

A few little bumps along the way. Actually the reason for the down time today for Highlander Radio was a slight configuration issue on our studio server.

That has been fixed.

Now for Celtic Dance Tavern, we switched to the SonixFM server and so it should be running fine using our links on our website. You might have to reload the page, browser - to get the new links to appear (could be pointing toward the old links).

We will be evaluating SonixFm over the next several days. They had some major issues with capacity several weeks ago, but have added 4 new machines to their server farm and things seem to be running smoothier now.

Still we will keep our backup servers available just in case any problems. Ideally this will be our long term broadcast provider. Plus for both Highlander Radio and Celtic Dance Tavern we are now listed on TuneIn.com which works with ApplyCar play and AndroidCar play.

We may wait for a period of time to pass before we consider moving Celtic Moon and Celt-Rock-Radio. Those channels are getting some pretty descend numbers and we want the streams to be stable before we move them over.

Who are the 68 listeners and what are they listening on. Since around early afternoon I've had nothing in terms of audio. My computer now says it cannot access the file or my proxy setting are off? It's ok 'cause I've got bagpipes in reserve, but it's nice to be reassured that it not your own equipment rebelling.
Again thanks WallceGal for that last headsup.

Skinner, you're welcome! Like I said though, I'm not privy to the inner workings here, but I've had a lot of issues with different streaming apps and have learned a lot on what's going on when something's acting one way or another. I'm just so glad to have this place and that CR works so hard for us! biggrin.gif

I ran things that I have no idea of what I'm doing and probably did harm (deleted) to something I shouldn't have, but the ghost have left the machine.
Thank you CR and the rest for providing such a great place and program.
It's like Joni Mitchells' "Big Yellow Taxi" when I can't get Highlander Radio.
