Norðlýsið

Held against the 4 stations in the Faroe Islands on this site, this one is in the leading three. The order is the directory's count of stream opens rather than anybody's judgement, which is worth saying because a leading position on a list like this reflects habit as much as anything else.

The Faroe Islands' entries all carry very low open counts, the highest of them in single figures. That means the country's ordering on this site is close to arbitrary, and it is better to browse it than to trust it. The counts come from the public directory and we publish them as they are rather than dressing them up.

Among 4 stations in the Faroe Islands here, this is the only one that puts klaksvík first. The klaksvík rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

The stream is served from liveradio.stream.fo, which no other entry in the Faroe Islands 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.

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