RPR1. 80er

RPR1. 80er is deep in Germany's listing, at 1402 of 1,409. 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.

No opens have been recorded against RPR1. 80er 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.

Tagged 80er, along with 30 other stations in the country and 33 across the directory.

The directory carries no bitrate for RPR1. 80er. The field is filled from what the stream's own server reports when it is scanned, so an empty one usually means a server that answers without announcing itself rather than a bad stream. Germany's stations that do report come in at a median of 128 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

17 of Germany's entries are served from stream.rpr1.de, this one among them. A shared host means a shared fate. If this stream is silent, the fastest check is not this station's own site but whether its neighbours on the same platform are playing.

Of everything the directory lists in Germany, the entry this page reads closest to is RPR1. Hip-Hop, so it is worth setting out what separates the two. The number each one is named for is the difference between them: the eighties here and one there. The broadcaster tagged this entry 80er, britpop, electropop, italopop, ndw, neue deutsche welle, new wave and pop, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the hip-hop, oldschool and rap tags and this one does not.
