Girl Power

Girl Power sits at 265 of 710 in France'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.

Broadcasting in English from France, alongside 87 other stations there doing the same. French is the country's commonest broadcast language in this directory, so this is the second shelf of a bilingual listing.

The English shelf on this site collects every station in the language regardless of where it transmits from, and the directory's English entries are concentrated in United States, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom. Reading the shelf next to this page is the quickest way to see how far the language's dial actually reaches.

Nothing else in France's listing leads with female vocalists. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

Girl Power streams at 64 kbps against France's median of 128, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 74% 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.
