Radio Odenwald

This is one of the quieter entries in Germany's listing, at 1397 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.

No opens have been recorded against Radio Odenwald in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

Radio Odenwald is the only station in Germany whose first tag is bergstrasse, 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 bergstrasse station.

192 kbps, which puts Radio Odenwald above the 128 kbps that a typical entry in Germany runs at.

Its audio comes straight from stream.radio-odenwald.de, an address unique to this entry in Germany's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
