In the United States' listing WOSU 89.7 NPR News lands at 236 of 1,481, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.
WOSU 89.7 NPR News broadcasts in English, which is the language most of the United States' stations in the directory use. The country's listing records six languages in total, so the English stations are the body of the dial rather than the whole of it.
Public radio covers 9 of the United States' entries. Tags on this site are always the broadcaster's own first tag and never a second one, because a station tagged five ways would otherwise appear on five shelves and turn each of them into a tag cloud.
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.
The stream is served from wosu.streamguys1.com, which no other entry in the United States uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.

WOSU 89.7 NPR News 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 WOSU 89.7 NPR News. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at wosu.org.
