SWR 1

SWR 1 is one of six entries in Germany whose names are the same but for a number, and this one's number is one. A broadcaster numbering its streams like that is separating feeds, not stations, so read the number as the part that matters.

SWR 1 ranks 157 among 1,409 stations in Germany. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

The language field is empty for this entry. It is left empty here too rather than filled from the country, because the shelves on this site are only worth using if what is on them was actually declared.

The country page counts pop among its commonest tags, and this station is one of the 39 entries in Germany behind that count. Worldwide the tag leads 343 stations, which makes the rail below a very wide shelf.

Across every country, SWR 1 is 33 of the 343 stations leading with pop, by the same open count the country list uses.

36 of Germany's entries are served from liveradio.swr.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.
