94.3 KILO

This is one of the quieter entries in the United States' listing, at 1216 of 1,481. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

94.3 KILO 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.

94.3 KILO is the only station in the United States whose first tag is active rock, out of 1,481 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in the United States does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only active rock station.

94.3 KILO streams at 64 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.
