Radio Radicale

Radio Radicale is at 181 in a listing of 400. 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.

The open count against Radio Radicale is three, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

The directory carries no bitrate for Radio Radicale. The field is filled from what the stream's own server reports when it is scanned, so an empty one usually means a server that answers without announcing itself rather than a bad stream. Italy's stations that do report come in at a median of 128 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

Radio Radicale streams from live.radioradicale.it. No other station in Italy is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.
