WVAM-AM 1450, FM 98.1 & 107.9 "The True Oldies Channel"

WVAM-AM 1450, FM 98.1 & 107.9 "The True Oldies Channel" sits in the tail of the United States' 1,481 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

With one recorded open, WVAM-AM 1450, FM 98.1 & 107.9 "The True Oldies Channel" sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in the United States' list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

The station's leading tag is oldies, shared with 14 other entries in the United States. It is a well populated tag here without being one of the country's defining ones, which is a common and unremarkable place for a station to sit.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where the United States' stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream is served from ice64.securenetsystems.net, an address six other entries in the United States use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
