This is wonderful - finally they are streaming their stations! I've been waiting for over a year for 99.9 Kiss FM which has since tweaked to a bright AC from hot:

Hi all,
First, I'd like to introduce myself to this board. I am The Radio Kid. I live in New York State, but follow Hawaii Radio closely. Hawaii has sooooo many interesting new formats. Unfortunatly, though, I don't see many Hawaiians posting on this board. That's a shame.
Now, on to our topic at hand here: the streaming stations. Uh, icycool, um, I looked at the Pacific Group website, and it said nothing about the "Kiss 99.9 " you spoke of. According to the website, the only 2 stations that are streaming are KPOA on Mowey (and no, I can't spell very well), and the 100.3 station on the Big Island. No 99.9 anywhere. Sorry.
I've been listening to the 2 stations back and forth now for the last hour. I find them exciting and interesting.

If you click "Our Stations" and go to their websites individually to listen they are all streaming.
Hey theradiokid, welcome aboard, and it's spelled Maui, FYI. KPOA and KAPA (in Hilo and on the Kona side) are the two PRG stations you mentioned. The streaming is an on-going project, and an expensive one too, so don't be surprised if stations are slow to come up to speed. KHPR in Honolulu will debut it's streaming on June 1st, even though we are now testing it. It sounds pretty good over here on Kaua`i (which is where I live). Hawaii Public Radio just installed a T3 and will be taking the streaming in-house, a big improvement in quality and reliability.
Stay tuned!
Stay tuned!

Hey Don Mussell,
Thanks for your kind words. I didn't know that KHPR didn't have live streaming. Then again, to my disappointment, a lot of Hawaii radio stations don't. I understand that for most of these small Hawaiian companies, it's expensive to stream a signal. Still, there are several stations in Hawaii that I'd love to hear because of their formatics (KZOO, and K-Japan on KORL from Honolulu, and most of the stations on Kawaii, for example. In fact, I think the only streaming Kawaii station is the Kau`i Community Radio KKCR.) Hopefully, as internet radio becomes more common place, Hawaii stations will start streaming.
And, Don Mussell, thank you, also, for correcting me on the spelling of Maui. I'd like to share something with you about myself if I may. I'm totally blind, and use a screen reader called Jaws. When I read these posts, I usually don't check to see how every word is spelled. So, when I write these posts, well, if it sounds correct, I will usually just go with it. This is especially true of names and places in Hawaii, for some reason. In the future, if you see a Hawaiian place or name misspelled, please feel free to correct me. I'd appreciate it.

Wow, it is great you can participate in this forum, even while blind. Some computer programmers are da kine, yeah.
With regards to KKCR, we started streaming in 1998 with an in-house computer. We use live365 now because of the large amount of listeners to that stream. KKCR also had it's own web page in 1995, two years before it went on the air.
KHPR has been trying to stream for a couple of years, but the rights to some of the programs are and were difficult to secure. It's about to happen now though, and of course KIPO has been streaming for a while, as the rights were easier to obtain (involving foreign countries and global copyrights was a big hurdle).
And since I live here, it's spelled Kaua`i. Best wishes and Aloha.

The five Hawaii stations I want to hear most are: KQMQ 93-1 The Zone (Honolulu), KUMU 94.7 (Honolulu), KWYI 106.9 (Kamuela), KESU 87.7 The Coast (Kauai), and the new rock station that signed on earlier this year KHWA Kona FM 92.1 (Holualoa). Plus of course others as well. I have checked out every Hawaii radio station listed.
KESU-LP is now running a mix of Hawaiian music and Christian programming on the aural carrier, with PSA's running on the video (it's an LPTV running as an FM station). It is brokered right now. I put pictures up when I built it back in 2003:
