Tune India Radio

In India's listing Tune India Radio lands at 117 of 565, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.

Tune India Radio broadcasts in Hindi, which is the language most of India's stations in the directory use. The country's listing records six languages in total, so the Hindi stations are the body of the dial rather than the whole of it.

Tune India Radio streams at 96 kbps, under India'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.

Where India's stations mostly use MP3, this one uses AAC. Worth a line only because it is a difference, and because the country page's format breakdown is one of the quicker ways to see which providers a national dial runs on.

The stream is served from s2.radio.co, an address three other entries in India use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
