Globo 98.7 (Guadalajara)

Rank 361 of 444 in Mexico. What that mostly measures is how many people have already found the station through this directory, which is a poor proxy for anything else and an honest one to publish.

No opens have been recorded against Globo 98.7 (Guadalajara) 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.

Nothing else in Mexico's listing leads with 98.7 fm. 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.

At 64 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 audio comes from playerservices.streamtheworld.com, and 103 other stations in Mexico are served from the same address. That is a streaming platform carrying many broadcasters rather than a station running its own server, which is worth knowing for a practical reason: when a platform has a bad night, a whole block of Mexico's listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.
