Radio Ricordi

This is one of the quieter entries in Italy's listing, at 380 of 400. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

No opens have been recorded against Radio Ricordi in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

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 Ricordi. 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.

The stream is served from stream1.xdevel.com, an address two other entries in Italy use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
