Radio Kasih

Radio Kasih sits in the tail of Indonesia's 212 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.

No opens have been recorded against Radio Kasih in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

Radio Kasih shares its leading tag, misc, with two other Indonesia entries. Across every country the directory has 28 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.

At 128 kbps the stream is on the better side of Indonesia's dial, where the median is 96 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 onlineradiobox.com, an address unique to this entry in Indonesia'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.
