WRadio Colombia

WRadio Colombia ranks 32 among 158 stations in Colombia. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

WRadio Colombia shares its leading tag, baladas, with one other Colombia entry. Across every country the directory has 11 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.

At 32 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Colombia's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

AAC+ here, on a dial that carries three different formats. A mixed codec listing usually means a country whose stations are hosted in several different places rather than through one dominant provider.

The stream is served from 27403.live.streamtheworld.com, which no other entry in Colombia uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.

The broadcaster publishes at wradio.com.co, on Colombia's own country domain. A national domain is a small piece of evidence that the station is what the directory says it is, since these are the harder ones to register from somewhere else.
