WBOR (91.1 FM) is the noncommercial, community public radio station licensed to Bowdoin College. This is the public repository for our technology operations. We develop in-house solutions to many of the technical problems that we face. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like to become involved in projects.
Powered by our Spinitron proxy, you may fetch WBOR Spinitron API data using the base URL https://api-1.wbor.org/api

Our online streams are made possible AzuraCast, an excellent piece of open source software. In terms of hosting, we are split between on and off-prem servers. Off-prem we currently use DigitalOcean droplets.
Coming soon!
We're delighted you want to help contribute to our technical operations. We welcome folks at all levels of experience.
