Karneval

Karneval is at 532 in a listing of 1,409. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

German is the station's language and the country's commonest, one of six Germany's listing records.

Among 1,409 stations in Germany here, this is the only one that puts alaaf first. The alaaf rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

At 192 kbps the stream is on the better side of Germany's dial, where the median is 128 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.

Its audio comes from karneval-high.rautemusik.fm. One other station in Germany streams from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

Their address is plus.rm.fm. A .fm address says the broadcaster wanted a radio sounding domain, not that the station is in Micronesia, which is where that domain actually comes from.
