Tango Copenhagen Radio

Tango Copenhagen Radio is deep in Denmark's listing, at 44 of 47. Down here the ordering barely orders anything: the difference between one position and the next is often a single recorded open, so treat the neighbours below as a shelf rather than as a ranking.

This is a English station in a country whose directory presence is led by Danish. Six entries in Denmark broadcast in English, which is a small group and a coherent one, and browsing it is a different experience from browsing the country.

The English shelf on this site collects every station in the language regardless of where it transmits from, and the directory's English entries are concentrated in United States, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom. Reading the shelf next to this page is the quickest way to see how far the language's dial actually reaches.

The stream is 128 kbps where Denmark's median is 192. Below the country's middle, which usually points at an older encoder or a deliberate choice to stay light, and matters far more for music than for talk.

The broadcaster's own site is tangocopenhagen.radio, on the .radio domain. That one is genuinely restricted: it is administered for the broadcasting industry and applicants have to show they are a broadcaster, which makes it a stronger signal than most addresses on these pages.
