[arm-allstar] Issues with Broadcastify streaming audio off of my node...

[Doug Crompton]

Bill,

 Multiple broadcasts are certainly possible. I have no idea now many would
be possible on the Pi. It is worth a try  to see.

Open broadcastify accounts for each upload. You will get individual
user/pass etc.

Create config files with distinct names - /etc/ezstream1.conf,
/etc/ezstream1.conf, etc.  These names do not have to be ezstream. It could
be radio1.conf or new-york-police.conf.  Any valid and distinct filenames.

​Place the broadcastify line in each node definition of rpt.conf  using the
correct config file for each.​

I believe the limit here would be more on the USB FOB limit. If you are
just receiving you might be able to get away with 4, turning off all output
audio. Again as far as I know it has never been tried.
