NBC News Radio (https)

Rank 1024 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 country page counts news among its commonest tags, and this station is one of the 48 entries in the United States behind that count. Worldwide the tag leads 307 stations, which makes the rail below a very wide shelf.

The directory carries no bitrate for NBC News Radio (https). The field is filled from what the stream's own server reports when it is scanned, so an empty one usually means a server that answers without announcing itself rather than a bad stream. the United States' stations that do report come in at a median of 128 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

The audio comes from stream.revma.ihrhls.com, and 176 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.

Of everything the directory lists in United States, the entry this page reads closest to is Q102 - WIOQ-FM 102.1 Philladelphia, so it is worth setting out what separates the two. They are filed in different parts of the country: this one under https, that one under Philadelphia PA. The broadcaster tagged this entry news, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the pop and top 40 tags and this one does not. The broadcasters publish at different addresses of their own, iheart.com and q102.iheart.com.
