Radio Onda Rossa

Position 75 of 400 in Italy. The ordering is a click count and nothing more, but at this depth it still separates stations meaningfully, which stops being true further down the same list.

The station's language is Italian, the commonest of the six the directory records for Italy. Language is one of the two axes this site indexes on, and the Italian shelf collects these stations across every country that carries them.

Among 400 stations in Italy here, this is the only one that puts political talk first. The political talk rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

No bitrate is recorded against this stream. It is a common gap: the value is scraped from the stream's headers and plenty of servers do not send them. Press play and your browser will tell you more in two seconds than the field would have.

Radio Onda Rossa streams in OGG rather than the MP3 that most of Italy's dial uses. Uncommon codecs are worth noticing for a practical reason as well as a nerdy one: browser support for them is thinner than for MP3 and AAC.

The stream is served from s.streampunk.cc, an address one other entry in Italy uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
