BBC Radio Tees

BBC Radio Tees is deep in the United Kingdom's listing, at 416 of 466. 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.

BBC Radio Tees 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.

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.

This one is HLS, a segmented format rather than a single continuous stream. It is worth knowing because the failure is specific and fixable rather than a dead station: the address works, the browser just cannot open that shape of address unaided.

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.
