Hacker por Cristo Network

Among the 31 stations in Guatemala with pages, Hacker por Cristo Network is around the halfway mark. Anything in this stretch is reachable from the country's numbered pages rather than from its front table, which is why those pages exist.

With one recorded open, Hacker por Cristo Network sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Guatemala's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

The christian-gospel corner of Guatemala's dial is two stations deep in this snapshot. Small clusters like that are usually the most rewarding thing on a country page, because they are what the national broadcasters at the top of the list are not.

Hacker por Cristo Network streams at 96 kbps, under Guatemala's median of 128 kbps. A lower rate is not automatically worse: speech carries perfectly well below the music threshold, and a station built for phones on a weak connection has a good reason to encode this way.

Its audio comes straight from radio.forensedigital.gt:8010, an address unique to this entry in Guatemala'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.
