SomaFM PopTron (128k AAC) is one of two entries in the United States whose names are the same but for a number, and this one's number is one hundred and twenty-eight. A broadcaster numbering its streams like that is separating feeds, not stations, so read the number as the part that matters.
Out of 1,481 entries in the United States, this one ranks 213. The upper quarter of a national list is an interesting place to be: well known enough to have accumulated opens, not so well known that it is the station everybody already had.
The electropop 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 stream is AAC. the United States' dial is split across three formats rather than settled on one, with MP3 the commonest, so this station is on a well populated side of a genuinely mixed listing.
36 of the United States' entries are served from ice2.somafm.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.

SomaFM PopTron (128k 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 SomaFM PopTron (128k AAC). Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at somafm.com.
