KSTX-FM 89.1 "Texas Public Radio"

In the United States' listing KSTX-FM 89.1 "Texas Public Radio" lands at 96 of 1,481, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.

Broadcasting in English, alongside most of the United States' other entries. The country page breaks the remaining five languages out with counts, which is usually a quicker read of who lives somewhere than any summary.

Nothing else in the United States' listing leads with apm. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

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

AAC+ here, on a dial that carries three different formats. A mixed codec listing usually means a country whose stations are hosted in several different places rather than through one dominant provider.

54 of the United States' entries are served from playerservices.streamtheworld.com, 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.
