CoolFm latin

CoolFm latin sits in the tail of Hungary's 118 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

With one recorded open, CoolFm latin sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Hungary's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

CoolFm latin is the only station in Hungary whose first tag is latin, out of 118 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Hungary does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only latin station.

CoolFm latin streams at 128 kbps, under Hungary's median of 160 kbps. A lower rate is not automatically worse: speech carries perfectly well below the music threshold, and a station built for phones on a weak connection has a good reason to encode this way.

21 of Hungary's entries are served from mediagw.e-tiger.net, 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.
