José 97.5 y 107.1

The country's dial has two sizeable languages on it and this station is on the smaller one. 87 entries in the United States broadcast in Spanish, against a listing whose commonest language is English.

Spanish radio in this directory sits largely in Mexico, Argentina and Spain, with 3,292 stations on the shelf in total. This page's station is one of the entries that make the shelf wider than any single country.

Among 1,481 stations in the United States here, this is the only one that puts 107.1 first. The 107.1 rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

José 97.5 y 107.1 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.

The audio comes from playerservices.streamtheworld.com, and 53 other stations in the United States are served from the same address. That is a streaming platform carrying many broadcasters rather than a station running its own server, which is worth knowing for a practical reason: when a platform has a bad night, a whole block of the United States' listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.
