106.9 The Eagle

106.9 The Eagle is one of two entries in the United States sharing a name and differing by a number, and this one carries one hundred and six point nine. That number is the only thing in the name that separates it from the rest of the set.

106.9 The Eagle is deep in the United States' listing, at 1193 of 1,481. 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.

106.9 The Eagle 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.

106.9 The Eagle streams at 32 kbps against the United States' median of 128, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 49% of stations reach 128 kbps, a rate this low stands out, and it usually means either a speech station that never needed more or an encoder that has not been touched in years.

9 of the United States' entries are served from ice9.securenetsystems.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.
