Try DIY.  Icecast2 is freeware, and easy to set up.  For doing a remote, 
load the stream encoder on the laptop or whatever will be feeding, with 
the IP address and port of the destination.  Since the stream server 
(Icecast2) would be running on a local machine back at the station, the 
only issue would be the link from the remote to the station...

Will handle MP3 and OGG streams right now.  For those wary of feeding in 
MP3, use the higher bitrates.  I'm running a stereo stream at 96 kbps 
with decent quality.  Or use the OGG Vorbis encoder...
