Retro Plus Señal 1

The directory lists two streams in Chile under this name, told apart by a number alone. This page is number one. Nothing here is taken from the other one.

Retro Plus Señal 1 sits in the tail of Chile's 99 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

Twice the local median and then some: 2158 kbps where Chile's stations typically manage 128. Whether you can hear the difference depends entirely on what you are listening on, but the headroom is there.

The stream is AACH264, which is unusual anywhere: Chile's listing is dominated by MP3. Formats outside the common three are typically a deliberate choice by a broadcaster who cares about the encoding chain, and they are also the ones most likely to give a browser trouble.

This one is HLS, a segmented format rather than a single continuous stream. It is worth knowing because the failure is specific and fixable rather than a dead station: the address works, the browser just cannot open that shape of address unaided.
