We are working hard to expand the Surf Rock Radio music library and we are very pleased to say that from May 2017 we will have a 3 terrabyte library. This is enough to store every surf tune ever released since 1961 in 320 kbps mp3 format. However, in order to make the upgrade we will have to change the url of the stream itself. This will probably not affect those of you who listen via the surfrockradio.com website or tunein, but it will affect those that use an external application like itunes or windows media player that are listening via a .pls or .m3u file.
The new url will be http://surfrockradio.com:9996 for the 128kbps stream.
We also have the capability to offer a higher resolution 192 kbps and AAC+ stream but we will ask listeners if this is something that they would like to use. if the response is positive we will go ahead and offer it.

Well, it's been a long time coming but I finally got around to updating the template on the site to make it more useable on mobile devices. The big change is that the players are slightly lower on the page than previously. This is to make room for a BLEEDING OBVIOUS pop-out stream player.
The background at the top of the page has changed too, but don't worry - the girls will be back at some point as downloadable wallpapers.
We haven't finished the schedules yet but that is happening soon.
Let me know what you think of the updates so far on the Suggestion Box part of the forum
