80's Hits

In Denmark's listing 80's Hits lands at 5 of 47, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

The gap here is large: 96 kbps where Denmark's stations typically run 192. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream is AAC+. Denmark's dial is split across three formats rather than settled on one, with MP3 the commonest, so this station is on a well populated side of a genuinely mixed listing.

The stream is served from live-bauerdk.sharp-stream.com, an address six other entries in Denmark use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.

Their site is radiostationer.dk, a domain registered in Denmark. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.
