Riverside Radio

Riverside Radio is deep in the United Kingdom's listing, at 403 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.

One recorded open in the public directory. That is a trace rather than a measurement, and it is the reason this page describes where the station sits rather than how popular it is.

Riverside Radio shares its leading tag, arts, with one other United Kingdom entry. Across every country the directory has 9 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.

At 64 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on the United Kingdom's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

Where the United Kingdom'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.

Its audio comes from streaming04.liveboxstream.uk. Four other stations in the United Kingdom stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.
