VPR(Vermont Public Radio) relay BBC

Rank 1118 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.

One recorded open in the public directory. That is a trace rather than a measurement, and it is the reason this page describes where the station sits rather than how popular it is.

English is the station's language and the country's commonest, one of six the United States' listing records.

A news station on a dial where news is one of the commonest tags: 48 entries in the United States lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how the United States' broadcasters describe themselves.

At 24 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 straight from vprbbc.streamguys1.com, an address unique to this entry in the United States' listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
