AIR Raagam is at 177 in a listing of 565. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.
AIR Raagam shares its leading tag, carnatic, with two other India entries. Across every country the directory has 3 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.
The gap here is large: 32 kbps where India's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.
This one is HLS, a segmented format rather than a single continuous stream. It is worth knowing because the failure is specific and fixable rather than a dead station: the address works, the browser just cannot open that shape of address unaided.
The audio comes from airhlspush.pc.cdn.bitgravity.com, and 26 other stations in India are served from the same address. That is a streaming platform carrying many broadcasters rather than a station running its own server, which is worth knowing for a practical reason: when a platform has a bad night, a whole block of India's listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.
These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
Broadcast by AIR Raagam. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at prasarbharati.gov.in.
