Disco Diamond Radio

Disco Diamond Radio is at 32 in a listing of 118. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

At 192 kbps the stream is on the better side of Hungary's dial, where the median is 160 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.

Its audio comes straight from ddr2020.radioca.st, an address unique to this entry in Hungary'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.

Disco Diamond Radio publishes at discodiamondradio.eu. The domain's country code is not the country the directory files the station under, which happens often enough with hosted stations and diaspora broadcasters to be unremarkable, and is still a difference this page will point out rather than hide.
