Αστέρι 88.5

In Greece's ordering this is number 148 of 320, which is the middle of the list. The stations either side of it are a better guide to what the country sounds like than the head of the list is, because the head is the same few famous streams in every country.

The open count against Αστέρι 88.5 is two, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

The directory records no language for Αστέρι 88.5. That gap is common and it is upstream of this site: broadcasters fill the field or they do not, and roughly a third of the stations with pages here have left it empty. It means the station appears on its country hub and not on any language shelf, which is the one place the omission costs it.

A mainstream station on a dial where mainstream is one of the commonest tags: 7 entries in Greece lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how Greece's broadcasters describe themselves.

The stream is served from asterifm.gr, which no other entry in Greece uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.
