Your Classical Radio

Rank 1473 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.

No opens have been recorded against Your Classical Radio in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

The language field is empty for this entry. It is left empty here too rather than filled from the country, because the shelves on this site are only worth using if what is on them was actually declared.

Tagged classical, along with 29 other stations in the country and 242 across the directory.

128 kbps matches the United States' median almost exactly. Most stations cluster here because most of them are using the same handful of hosting providers with the same default settings.

Its audio comes straight from ycradio.stream.publicradio.org, 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.

Of everything the directory lists in United States, the entry this page reads closest to is Peach 1019, so it is worth setting out what separates the two. The two streams are served from different addresses, ycradio.stream.publicradio.org for this one and nbscast.com for the other. This one is encoded as MP3 and that one as AAC, which is a difference a browser can hear about before you can. The broadcaster tagged this entry classical, which the other entry is not tagged with. The broadcasters publish at different addresses of their own, tourclassical.org and peach1019.com.
