Venezuela Stereo

Venezuela Stereo sits in the tail of Spain's 487 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

No opens have been recorded against Venezuela Stereo in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

The language field is empty for this entry. It is left empty here too rather than filled from the country, because the shelves on this site are only worth using if what is on them was actually declared.

Twice the local median and then some: 320 kbps where Spain's stations typically manage 128. Whether you can hear the difference depends entirely on what you are listening on, but the headroom is there.

Its audio comes straight from mediastreamm.com, an address unique to this entry in Spain'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.
