Kan Bet

In Israel's listing Kan Bet lands at 5 of 68, which puts it on the first or second page of the country hub rather than in its tail.

Kan Bet broadcasts in Hebrew, which is the language most of Israel's stations in the directory use. The country's listing records six languages in total, so the Hebrew stations are the body of the dial rather than the whole of it.

Kan Bet leads with news, a tag 4 other stations in Israel use and one the country hub lists among its headline genres. If the country's sound is what brought you here, this is squarely part of it.

On the same tag worldwide it is 49 of 307, which is inside the top quarter of every news station the directory carries.

At 128 kbps this is a typical stream for Israel by the one measure the directory carries.

The stream is served from 28563.live.streamtheworld.com, which no other entry in Israel 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.

Kan Bet keeps its own site at kan.org.il. The address sits under Israel's country code, which lines up with where the directory says the station broadcasts from.
