islamina

islamina is deep in Kuwait's listing, at 11 of 13. Down here the ordering barely orders anything: the difference between one position and the next is often a single recorded open, so treat the neighbours below as a shelf rather than as a ranking.

islamina is the only station in Kuwait whose first tag is islamic, out of 13 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Kuwait does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only islamic station.

The directory carries no bitrate for islamina. 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. Kuwait's stations that do report come in at a median of 64 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

islamina streams in MP3 while most of Kuwait's dial is AAC+. Codec choice is mostly invisible to a listener, and it is one of the clearest fingerprints of which hosting provider a station uses, since providers default their customers into a format and few customers ever change it.
