Motiva

Motiva sits at 43 of 99 in Chile's listing, in the body of the list rather than at either end. This is where most of a national dial actually lives, and it is the part a country hub's first fifty rows never reach.

The open count against Motiva is two, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

The gap here is large: 40 kbps where Chile's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream is AAC. Chile's dial is split across four formats rather than settled on one, with MP3 the commonest, so this station is on a well populated side of a genuinely mixed listing.

The stream is served from radiomotiva.edz.cl, an address one other entry in Chile uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
