Channel X

In New Zealand's listing Channel X lands at 4 of 67, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.

English is the station's language and the country's commonest, one of six New Zealand's listing records.

129 kbps matches New Zealand's median almost exactly. Most stations cluster here because most of them are using the same handful of hosting providers with the same default settings.

The stream is AAC. New Zealand's dial is split across three formats rather than settled on one, with MP3 the commonest, so this station is on a well populated side of a genuinely mixed listing.

The stream address on this entry points at mediaworks.streamguys1.com, which is where 8 other stations in New Zealand 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.

The broadcaster publishes at trb.co.nz, on New Zealand's own country domain. A national domain is a small piece of evidence that the station is what the directory says it is, since these are the harder ones to register from somewhere else.
