Hits 1

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

In France's listing Hits 1 lands at 61 of 710, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.

Hits 1 broadcasts in French, which is the language most of France's stations in the directory use. The country's listing records six languages in total, so the French stations are the body of the dial rather than the whole of it.

Hits 1 shares its leading tag, club dance, with two other France entries. Across every country the directory has 11 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.

256 kbps against France's median of 128. Streams at this rate are the ones worth finding a good pair of headphones for, and they are uncommon: 74% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps at all.

Its audio comes straight from radio7.pro-fhi.net, an address unique to this entry in France's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
