Default Get FAN960 streaming on your iPhone in 2 simple steps! And it's free...

This might be old news, but I finally took the time to fool around with this and figure it out. There may be pay apps out there that offer the same thing, but this is better. Free is always better.

Step 1: Go into the App store and download FStream.

http://itunes.com/app/FStream

Step 2: Open the App, go to the 'favorites' (star) icon, edit (in the top left), add a new station, and type the following into the URL:

mms://a543.l8090152405.c80901.n.lm.akamaistream.net/D/543/80901/v0001/reflector:52405

*** Thanks to Shazam for finding a new working link!


You might want to name it, but you can leave 'format' and 'bitrate' blank.

Enjoy the Sutter press conference from anywhere!

Also, a heads up, to get the stream working over cellular network (3G, Edge), go to the 'more' icon at the bottom, settings, and then toggle on 'cellular networks'

Just get it by right clicking the direct streaming link. Changing http to mms or whatever was the tricky part. I had to consult some nerd sites.

Not working for me either. Is there any way that the OP can post a quick step by step to procure the feed address?

there's a better app out there that works.

WunderRadio works better IMO, i also get my Sirius stations on it.

Just run the app and click on Local Radio by GPS. Click on the Fan 960. Your Done.

I used to have a direct link that worked. But it wasn't working yesterday.

And the piss of thing is if I want to listen to CHED (edit: and the garbage known as The Team 1260) it works fine.

A couple of the Rogers sites would appear to be broken - AM660 doesn't work either.

+1 to that. Definately my most used app. I listen to stations from all over the place at work when bored. Works like a charm
