Радио ROKS

Out of 47 entries in Belarus, this one ranks 6. The upper quarter of a national list is an interesting place to be: well known enough to have accumulated opens, not so well known that it is the station everybody already had.

Радио ROKS broadcasts in Belarusian from Belarus, one of six stations there that do. The country's dial is mostly Russian, so these six entries are a minority language cluster inside a national listing rather than the listing itself.

Belarusian is not large enough in this snapshot to have a shelf of its own here, so the station's only index is its country. Shelves are built from the directory's commonest broadcast languages and the line has to fall somewhere; below it, the country hub is the route.

Nothing else in Belarus' listing leads with rock. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

Across every country, Радио ROKS is 4 of the 148 stations leading with rock, by the same open count the country list uses.

The stream is served from stream.roks.com:8443, which no other entry in Belarus uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.
