四川新闻广播

The name breaks into two halves. Sichuan is the place, and news radio is the kind of service, so the entry describes itself before anything on this page does. The heading keeps the broadcaster's own spelling, in Chinese characters.

四川新闻广播 sits at 218 of 391 in China'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.

A information station on a dial where information is one of the commonest tags: 19 entries in China lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how China's broadcasters describe themselves.

四川新闻广播 reports no bitrate to the directory. Rather than print a zero or invent an average, the page says nothing, which is the same policy every empty field on this site gets.

The stream address on this entry points at lhttp.qtfm.cn, which is where 89 other stations in China are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.

Of everything the directory lists in China, the entry this page reads closest to is 辽宁交通广播, so it is worth setting out what separates the two. The names say where each one is: this one names Sichuan and the other names Liaoning. Read as words rather than as a brand, this name says news radio and that one says traffic radio. They are filed in different parts of the country: this one under Szechuan, that one under Liaoning. The broadcaster tagged this entry news, which the other entry is not tagged with.
