VALLES DIGITAL RADIO 1210 (El Arenal)

This is one of the quieter entries in Mexico's listing, at 435 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 VALLES DIGITAL RADIO 1210 (El Arenal). 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.

Among 444 stations in Mexico here, this is the only one that puts 1210 am first. The 1210 am rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

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 straight from shoutcast.uplinkmx.com:8000, an address unique to this entry in Mexico's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
