MR5 - Parlamenti Adások

This is one of the quieter entries in Hungary's listing, at 87 of 118. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

With two recorded opens, MR5 - Parlamenti Adások 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.

5 stations in Hungary lead with jazz and MR5 - Parlamenti Adások is one of them, though the tag does not make the country's headline list. Across the whole directory 127 stations use it first, so the rail below runs well past Hungary.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where Hungary's stations typically run 160. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream address on this entry points at mr-stream.connectmedia.hu, which is where 8 other stations in Hungary are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.
