Position 35 of 140 in Australia. The ordering is a click count and nothing more, but at this depth it still separates stations meaningfully, which stops being true further down the same list.
At 252 kbps the stream is on the better side of Australia's dial, where the median is 128 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.
Encoded as AAC, one of the three formats Australia's stations use. The country page breaks all of them out with counts.
The stream is served as an HLS playlist, which is the format broadcasters use to switch bitrates on the fly and the one a plain browser audio element will not open. Nothing is wrong with the station; the player on this page simply cannot follow that kind of link without a library. The extension carries one and handles it.
The stream address on this entry points at mediaserviceslive.akamaized.net, which is where 27 other stations in Australia are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.
These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
Broadcast by Double J QLD. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at www.abc.net.au.
