This is one of the quieter entries in the United States' listing, at 1004 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.
The open count against KUTX 98.9 FM (AAC) is one, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.
Only two entries in the United States put local radio first. The tag is self-declared and inconsistent between countries, which is why the rail below is worth more as a way of wandering than as a filter.
At 48 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.
Its audio comes from streams.kut.org. Four other stations in the United States stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

KUTX 98.9 FM (AAC) is one of 3,967 playable stations the catalogue lists in United States, and one of the smaller number that say where in the country they transmit from.
These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
Broadcast by KUTX 98.9 FM (AAC). Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at kutx.org.
