Radio Veritas

At position 66 of 100, this is one of the stations in South Africa that almost nobody arrives at by browsing. That is the case for having a page at all. A station reachable only by knowing its name is a station most directories lose.

The open count against Radio Veritas 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.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

Radio Veritas streams at 48 kbps against South Africa's median of 128, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 47% of stations reach 128 kbps, a rate this low stands out, and it usually means either a speech station that never needed more or an encoder that has not been touched in years.

Radio Veritas streams from zas5.ndx.co.za:9618. No other station in South Africa is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.
