Rainbow Radio

Rainbow Radio sits in the tail of Ghana's 58 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.

With one recorded open, Rainbow Radio sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Ghana's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

Broadcasting in English, alongside most of Ghana's other entries. The country page breaks the remaining two languages out with counts, which is usually a quicker read of who lives somewhere than any summary.

The stream runs at 128 kbps, level with Ghana's median. Bitrate stops being interesting once a station is at the local norm, and the useful question moves on to whether the stream stays up, which no snapshot can answer.

Its audio comes straight from node-15.zeno.fm, an address unique to this entry in Ghana'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.

The broadcaster's own site is rainbowradioonline.com. A .com address says nothing about where a station is, which is why the country on this page comes from the directory's own country field rather than from the domain.
