Nostalgia

Nostalgia is deep in Spain's listing, at 452 of 487. Down here the ordering barely orders anything: the difference between one position and the next is often a single recorded open, so treat the neighbours below as a shelf rather than as a ranking.

Nostalgia has a zero in the directory's open count. It is the least interesting number on this page and the one most likely to be misread, so it is worth being plain: it measures traffic through radio-browser, not audience.

Nostalgia streams at 96 kbps, under Spain's median of 128 kbps. A lower rate is not automatically worse: speech carries perfectly well below the music threshold, and a station built for phones on a weak connection has a good reason to encode this way.

Where Spain's stations mostly use MP3, this one uses AAC. Worth a line only because it is a difference, and because the country page's format breakdown is one of the quicker ways to see which providers a national dial runs on.

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