Radio Pakistan World Service

In Pakistan's ordering this is number 14 of 41, which is the middle of the list. The stations either side of it are a better guide to what the country sounds like than the head of the list is, because the head is the same few famous streams in every country.

Radio Pakistan World Service has no language recorded in the directory. We do not infer one. Guessing from the country would put every station in Pakistan on the same shelf regardless of what it broadcasts, which is exactly the kind of filled-in blank that makes a directory untrustworthy.

Radio Pakistan World Service streams at 128 kbps, which is exactly where Pakistan's dial sits: the country's median is 128 kbps. Being unremarkable on this axis is the normal case and it is fine. 59% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better.

The stream is served from whmsonic.radio.gov.pk:7005, an address one other entry in Pakistan uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.

Their site is radio.gov.pk, a domain registered in Pakistan. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.
