TNT Atlanta Radio

TNT Atlanta Radio sits in the tail of Vietnam's 26 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.

News is one of Vietnam's headline genres in this directory, and TNT Atlanta Radio is one of 8 stations there leading with it. The country hub prints the same tag near the top of its own list, so this station sits inside the country's main sound rather than off to one side.

TNT Atlanta Radio streams at 64 kbps against Vietnam's median of 128, which is less than half the local norm. On a dial where 45% of stations reach 128 kbps, a rate this low stands out, and it usually means either a speech station that never needed more or an encoder that has not been touched in years.

Its audio comes straight from cast4.servcast.net, an address unique to this entry in Vietnam's 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.
