AZTLÁN RADIO 550 (Tepic)

This is one of the quieter entries in Mexico's listing, at 340 of 444. 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.

The directory records no opens at all for AZTLÁN RADIO 550 (Tepic). That is a fact about the directory rather than about the station: a stream nobody has opened through radio-browser can be perfectly healthy and well listened to on its own site or on a radio. It does mean this page is where the station's directory history starts.

Nothing else in Mexico's listing leads with 550 am. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where Mexico's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

Its audio comes from stream-286.surfernetwork.com. One other station in Mexico streams from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

The nearest thing to this entry in Mexico is CRISTO REY RADIO 1110 (Ciudad Juárez). They are not the same station, and these are the facts the catalogue holds that tell them apart. The number each one is named for is the difference between them: five hundred and fifty here and eleven ten there. They are filed in different parts of the country: this one under Tepic, Nayarit, that one under Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua. The two streams are served from different addresses, stream-286.surfernetwork.com for this one and live.turadio.stream:7021 for the other. The broadcaster tagged this entry 550 am, aztlán radio, concesión pública, cultural, entretenimiento and español, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the 1110 am, católica, católico, chihuahua, ciudad juárez and cristo tags and this one does not. The broadcasters publish at different addresses of their own, aztlanradio.nayarit.gob.mx and cristoreyradio.com.mx.
