Mix 102.3

Among the 140 stations in Australia with pages, Mix 102.3 is around the halfway mark. Anything in this stretch is reachable from the country's numbered pages rather than from its front table, which is why those pages exist.

With three recorded opens, Mix 102.3 sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Australia's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

Only two entries in Australia put hot adult contemporary first. The tag is self-declared and inconsistent between countries, which is why the rail below is worth more as a way of wandering than as a filter.

Mix 102.3 streams at 48 kbps against Australia's median of 128, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 50% of stations reach 128 kbps, a rate this low stands out, and it usually means either a speech station that never needed more or an encoder that has not been touched in years.

8 of Australia's entries are served from ais-arn.streamguys1.com, this one among them. A shared host means a shared fate. If this stream is silent, the fastest check is not this station's own site but whether its neighbours on the same platform are playing.
