BBC Radio Nottingham

Rank 305 of 466 in the United Kingdom. What that mostly measures is how many people have already found the station through this directory, which is a poor proxy for anything else and an honest one to publish.

At 101 kbps, this sits below most of the United Kingdom's listing, whose median is 128 kbps. 69% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better, so the dial around it is mostly higher.

The stream is served as an HLS playlist, which is the format broadcasters use to switch bitrates on the fly and the one a plain browser audio element will not open. Nothing is wrong with the station; the player on this page simply cannot follow that kind of link without a library. The extension carries one and handles it.

The stream is served from a.files.bbci.co.uk, an address four other entries in the United Kingdom use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.

The station's site is at radio-uk.co.uk, which sits under the .uk country domain rather than the United Kingdom's. That mismatch is usually mundane, a host or a parent organisation registered elsewhere, and it is the kind of small inconsistency worth seeing rather than smoothing over.
