WABC 770 AM - NewYork, NY

WABC 770 AM - NewYork, NY is at 453 in a listing of 1,481. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

WABC 770 AM - NewYork, NY is the only station in the United States whose first tag is local talk, out of 1,481 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in the United States does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only local talk station.

At 96 kbps, this sits below most of the United States' listing, whose median is 128 kbps. 49% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better, so the dial around it is mostly higher.

The stream address on this entry points at playerservices.streamtheworld.com, which is where 53 other stations in the United States are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.
