加拿大中文电台FM.96.1

加拿大中文电台FM.96.1 broadcasts in Chinese from Canada, one of five stations there that do. The country's dial is mostly English, so these five entries are a minority language cluster inside a national listing rather than the listing itself.

The Chinese shelf on this site collects every station in the language regardless of where it transmits from, and the directory's Chinese entries are concentrated in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong SAR China. Reading the shelf next to this page is the quickest way to see how far the language's dial actually reaches.

加拿大中文电台FM.96.1 is the only station in Canada whose first tag is 96.1, out of 259 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Canada does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only 96.1 station.

加拿大中文电台FM.96.1 streams at 48 kbps against Canada's median of 96, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 46% 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.

加拿大中文电台FM.96.1 publishes an HLS stream. That is a modern and perfectly good way to broadcast, and it is also why the button on this page may not start it: HLS needs a player that can read a playlist and fetch segments, which a browser audio tag does not do on its own.
