Poolside | NTS

Poolside | NTS is at 188 in a listing of 466. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

Broadcasting in English, alongside most of the United Kingdom's other entries. The country page breaks the remaining five languages out with counts, which is usually a quicker read of who lives somewhere than any summary.

Poolside is the station's own leading tag and no other entry in the United Kingdom uses it that way. Worth reading as self-description: the directory takes tags as broadcasters type them and does not reconcile them.

256 kbps against the United Kingdom's median of 128. Streams at this rate are the ones worth finding a good pair of headphones for, and they are uncommon: 69% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps at all.

14 of the United Kingdom's entries are served from stream-mixtape-geo.ntslive.net, this one among them. A shared host means a shared fate. If this stream is silent, the fastest check is not this station's own site but whether its neighbours on the same platform are playing.
