Cope Madrid FM

Out of 487 entries in Spain, this one ranks 7. The upper quarter of a national list is an interesting place to be: well known enough to have accumulated opens, not so well known that it is the station everybody already had.

The directory counts 85 opens against this stream. That is well above Spain's median and it is the reason the station sits where it does on the country list, since the ordering is the count and nothing else.

The station's language is Spanish, the commonest of the six the directory records for Spain. Language is one of the two axes this site indexes on, and the Spanish shelf collects these stations across every country that carries them.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where Spain's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

Cope Madrid FM streams from net1-cope-rrcast.flumotion.com. No other station in Spain is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.

Cope Madrid FM keeps its own site at cope.es. The address sits under Spain's country code, which lines up with where the directory says the station broadcasts from.
