Aspen FM 102.7 Paraguay

Near the top of Paraguay's list, at 3 of 16. Positions this high tend to be stable between snapshots, which is more than can be said for the middle of a long national listing.

Aspen FM 102.7 Paraguay is the only station in Paraguay whose first tag is community, out of 16 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Paraguay does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only community station.

The stream is 48 kbps where Paraguay's median is 93. Below the country's middle, which usually points at an older encoder or a deliberate choice to stay light, and matters far more for music than for talk.

Aspen FM 102.7 Paraguay publishes an HLS stream. That is a modern and perfectly good way to broadcast, and it is also why the button on this page may not start it: HLS needs a player that can read a playlist and fetch segments, which a browser audio tag does not do on its own.

The stream is served from copaco.desdeparaguay.net, an address two other entries in Paraguay use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
