[BC] sports audio feed

[Ronald C. Barnes]

Yes. At Dunes 102 WGTX we use a Virgin Broadband Anywhere modem (same thing) running an Icecast encoder to my private cloud linux/icecast server then the station and I can listen simultaneously.  

We have a small Mackie class mixer, 2 headsets and a single nat-sound mic all connected to the line input of a laptop or computer. 

WME will serve you well too.

Thinking out loud... if I have 1.) a basic laptop with 2.) an air card (Alltel, soon to be AT&T), can I take audio out off my sports kit, feed it to the mic input of the laptop, and use the laptop/aircard as a cell phone to dial back to the station & feed the game?
 
Is there another way to get audio back to the station via laptop/aircard combo, something like a private stream via Windows Media Encoder?
 
I run into gyms w/ no phone line occasionally, so this would be a backup, unless it sounds better & is reliable.
 
Cell dealer made the pitch this afternoon... I won't have the equipment to play with til Monday. Just wondering if anyone was doing anything like this successfully.
 
Thanks, all!
