Rai No Name Radio

At position 316 of 400, this is one of the stations in Italy that almost nobody arrives at by browsing. That is the case for having a page at all. A station reachable only by knowing its name is a station most directories lose.

With one recorded open, Rai No Name Radio sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Italy's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

Broadcasting in Italian, alongside most of Italy's other entries. The country page breaks the remaining five languages out with counts, which is usually a quicker read of who lives somewhere than any summary.

At 256 kbps, Rai No Name Radio streams at more than double Italy's median of 128 kbps. That is a deliberate choice by whoever runs it: bandwidth is the recurring cost of an internet station, and a rate this far above the local norm is money spent on sounding better than the dial around it.

Its audio comes from icestreaming.rai.it. Two other stations in Italy stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

Their site is raiplaysound.it, a domain registered in Italy. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.
