About WVPS-HD3 Vermont Public Radio
WVPS-HD3 is a digital subchannel out of Burlington, Vermont, where Vermont Public Radio carries the BBC World Service feed around the clock, and the whole thing streams free online at digital.vpr.net.
That combination is a bit unusual for a small New England public station. VPR is a familiar NPR-affiliated name in Vermont, but this particular channel hands the microphone entirely to the BBC, meaning you get the London-produced international news programming the World Service is known for rather than local drive-time shows or pledge drives. If you landed here looking for VPR’s main programming, this is a separate stream. If you were looking for BBC World Service and found this, you’re in the right place.
The stream runs at 24 kbps MP3, which is low by modern standards but was clearly chosen to work on slower connections. It plays fine. Just don’t expect high-fidelity audio.
