Hey John,
Everything worked perfectly. Only one change, I installed the DarkIce build
from Broadcastify which included the MP3 encoder.
I'm feeding Sachse, TX. I use to carry a neighboring city with more
activity, but since they went encrypted, it is just Sachse now. I only
mention in case you tune there, it is quiet 97% of the time.
I'll probably switch back to my other PI with a scanner while away from
home, until I see that this runs stable for a while. I'm betting I'll need
something to restart RX.PY every so often.... But so far so good. And no
nasty background noise of the Whistler scanner headphone jack!
Thanks again.

You're welcome, Chance. Since I only tested this on one system and then
burned the image, please let me know of any issues/errors you encounter.
Remember that you'll need to configure Darkice and figure out what
streamer you're going to feed. I'm using Icecast running on a small
Atom processor box to feed my home network.
At present, I'm still using the GUI but it would make sense for a
version intended just to stream, to use the CLI only and save a couple
of GB of size. That's still on the list.

Hey John,
Thanks a million! This was on my weekend list of things to do and I was
just about to dive into to figure this all out. You just saved me a
whole Sunday afternoon. I'm downloading the image now!

I just got my RPi scanner set up to stream audio
to an Icecast server..
Graham did all the hard work to figure out how, so he gets all the
credit. But I did collect the information together in a blog posting
here:

I'm also going to update my plug-and-play image file to include this.
It may take me a couple of days to get that ready.
