Mellow Bangla

Mellow Bangla is one of the three most opened stations in Bangladesh in this directory. That is a small enough club that the country hub lists all of them above the fold, and a large enough country that the position means something.

The directory counts 23 opens against this stream. That is well above Bangladesh's median and it is the reason the station sits where it does on the country list, since the ordering is the count and nothing else.

A bangla station on a dial where bangla is one of the commonest tags: 4 entries in Bangladesh lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how Bangladesh's broadcasters describe themselves.

At 192 kbps the stream is on the better side of Bangladesh'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.

Its audio comes straight from radio.mellowbangla.com, an address unique to this entry in Bangladesh's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
