Ke Buena 97.5 FM

Rank 1302 of 1,481 in the United States. What that mostly measures is how many people have already found the station through this directory, which is a poor proxy for anything else and an honest one to publish.

The directory records no opens at all for Ke Buena 97.5 FM. That is a fact about the directory rather than about the station: a stream nobody has opened through radio-browser can be perfectly healthy and well listened to on its own site or on a radio. It does mean this page is where the station's directory history starts.

The regional mexican corner of the United States' dial is three stations deep in this snapshot. Small clusters like that are usually the most rewarding thing on a country page, because they are what the national broadcasters at the top of the list are not.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where the United States' stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

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.

The nearest thing to this entry in United States is WMPB HD2 - MPB Music Radio. They are not the same station, and these are the facts the catalogue holds that tell them apart. The number each one is named for is the difference between them: ninety-seven point five here and two there. They are filed in different parts of the country: this one under El Paso TX, that one under Mississippi. The directory puts this stream at sixty-four kilobits and the other at twenty-four. The broadcaster tagged this entry regional mexican, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the classical, jackson, music and npr tags and this one does not.
