CHRISTMAS CHOR__ by rautemusik ( )

This is one of the quieter entries in Germany's listing, at 984 of 1,409. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

CHRISTMAS CHOR__ by rautemusik ( ) is the only station in Germany whose first tag is choral, out of 1,409 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Germany does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only choral station.

The encode is 192 kbps against a country median of 128. Comfortably above the middle of Germany's listing without being one of its outliers.

CHRISTMAS CHOR__ by rautemusik ( ) streams from christmas-chor-high.rautemusik.fm. No other station in Germany is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.

The station's own site is rm.fm. The .fm domain has nothing to do with FM radio or with where a station is: it belongs to the Federated States of Micronesia and has been sold to broadcasters worldwide for years, so read it as branding rather than as a location.

CHRISTMAS CHOR__ by rautemusik ( ) and TRAURIG__ by rautemusik ( ) are described by the directory in very nearly the same fields, which makes the differences between them worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred. The two streams are served from different addresses, christmas-chor-high.rautemusik.fm for this one and traurig-high.rautemusik.fm for the other. The broadcaster tagged this entry choral, christmas, christmas music, church, church of christ, klassik weihnachten christmas and weihnachten, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the easy listening, feelings, slow, traurig and yordi rosado tags and this one does not.
