RTBF Musiq3

In Belgium's ordering this is number 50 of 122, which is the middle of the list. The stations either side of it are a better guide to what the country sounds like than the head of the list is, because the head is the same few famous streams in every country.

The open count against RTBF Musiq3 is three, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

The directory carries no bitrate for RTBF Musiq3. The field is filled from what the stream's own server reports when it is scanned, so an empty one usually means a server that answers without announcing itself rather than a bad stream. Belgium's stations that do report come in at a median of 128 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

22 of Belgium's entries are served from radios.rtbf.be, this one among them. A shared host means a shared fate. If this stream is silent, the fastest check is not this station's own site but whether its neighbours on the same platform are playing.
