sorry for the typp. You probably figured it out (just checking to see if you were paying attention):
I have just added three more global internet definitions: itty.internet-tty.net <http://itty.internet-tty.net/>; autostart.internet-tty.net and europe.internet-tty.net <http://europe.internet-tty.net/>.

Then tell the server at port 8000 (one of my three audio broadcast servers) that you want the station named ITTY. Here is where the caps are important. As some of you have surmised, the audio broadcase servers I am using are linux based!

The various directory servers around the world have (or soon will have) my three new definitions added to their “address books” and will do the lookup for you. The reason I say “or soon will have” is because all the servers in the world need to be updated. I have no idea how many there are, but one website said this: "There are 18.5 million domain name system (DNS) servers as of 2011”. Imagine how many more there are now?
