Radio ABC FM 98.5 (Asunción)

Radio ABC FM 98.5 (Asunción) sits at 7 of 16 in Paraguay's listing, in the body of the list rather than at either end. This is where most of a national dial actually lives, and it is the part a country hub's first fifty rows never reach.

The open count against Radio ABC FM 98.5 (Asunción) is two, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

Nothing else in Paraguay's listing leads with asunción. 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.

The encode is 128 kbps against a country median of 93. Comfortably above the middle of Paraguay's listing without being one of its outliers.

Its audio comes straight from media.streambrothers.com:8350, an address unique to this entry in Paraguay'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.
