Radio Krishna

In India's ordering this is number 185 of 565, which is the middle of the list. The stations either side of it are a better guide to what the country sounds like than the head of the list is, because the head is the same few famous streams in every country.

Nothing else in India's listing leads with hindu. 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.

Radio Krishna streams at 48 kbps against India's median of 128, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 61% 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.

Its audio comes straight from millenniumhits.out.airtime.pro:8000, an address unique to this entry in India'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.

Their site is radio.garden, on the .garden domain. The newer top level domains carry no location information at all, so nothing about the address confirms or contradicts what the directory records.
