Description
Radio La Otra is an Ecuadorian party station built almost entirely around chicha, the country's own brand of tropical Andean cumbia. It runs two separate services with their own schedules, one for Pichincha around Quito and one for Guayas around Guayaquil, so the line-up you hear depends on which side of the mountains you are on. Weekdays open at five in the morning with a loud, jokey breakfast crew and then hand over to a rolling series of two-hour music blocks, each with its own presenter and its own resident DJ. Afternoons lean into requests and dedications, and by evening the mood softens for guitar and accordion shows aimed at listeners who want the older national repertoire. Weekends drop the talk almost completely and become one long dance party under the banners Fiesta Sabatina and Fiesta Dominguera. The website doubles as an entertainment news desk, heavy on Ecuadorian showbusiness gossip alongside health and technology stories.

what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
web.laotrafm.com is entirely in Spanish, including the schedule page headed RADIO LA OTRA PICHINCHA 91.3 FM with columns HORARIO, PROGRAMA and LOCUTORES, and Spanish show titles such as Que Chicha Quieres and Raices de la Patria Grande. The site is current, with posts dated 24 September 2026. |
What we found and did not publish
Material that would have made this page fuller, and was refused. A page with five named presenters looks better than a page with none even when the five are a website theme's demonstration content, and the difference is invisible to a reader. So it is recorded here instead.
| What we could have said | Why we did not |
|---|---|
| the only published mailbox is a commercial-management address on an outside advertising agency's domain, not the station's | naming would publish it
source |
| the WhatsApp link on the homepage and the contact page is an advertiser's banner sitting in an ad-tracked image slot, not a station route; the Telegram link in the station's own social icon row is the station's | I would have counted the WhatsApp as a listener route in error

| the second form is the regulator-facing BUZON CIUDADANO at /index.php/buzon-ciudadano/, which is a separate working form asking the listener to leave a message | finding

If you think something here is wrong
Tell us which fact and what you found instead. Everything above names its source and its date, so a disagreement can be settled by looking rather than argued. Where another site disagrees with us, it is usually because it is repeating a radio directory, and occasionally because we got it wrong. We would like to know which.
