BJB 570 (Monterrey)

BJB 570 (Monterrey) is at position 103 of the 444 stations in Mexico with pages here, inside the top quarter of the national listing. That is high enough to be reached by browsing rather than by searching, which is how most of these pages are actually found.

The open count against BJB 570 (Monterrey) 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.

570 am is the station's own leading tag and no other entry in Mexico uses it that way. Worth reading as self-description: the directory takes tags as broadcasters type them and does not reconcile them.

At 48 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Mexico's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

The stream address on this entry points at playerservices.streamtheworld.com, which is where 103 other stations in Mexico are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.

BJB 570 (Monterrey) and Abc Noticias 1310 (Mty) are described by the directory in very nearly the same fields, which makes the differences between them worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred. The number each one is named for is the difference between them: five hundred and seventy here and thirteen ten there. The broadcaster tagged this entry 570 am, apodaca, bjb regional mexicana, entretenimiento, español and estación, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the 1310 am, abc noticias, adult contemporary, adult hits, classic hits and classics tags and this one does not.
