Radio Meano

This is one of the quieter entries in Italy's listing, at 375 of 400. 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.

Radio Meano has a zero in the directory's open count. It is the least interesting number on this page and the one most likely to be misread, so it is worth being plain: it measures traffic through radio-browser, not audience.

The language field is empty for this entry. It is left empty here too rather than filled from the country, because the shelves on this site are only worth using if what is on them was actually declared.

Country music is the station's own leading tag and no other entry in Italy uses it that way. Worth reading as self-description: the directory takes tags as broadcasters type them and does not reconcile them.

16 of Italy's entries are served from stream.laut.fm, 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.

Radio Meano publishes at laut.fm. Worth a note because .fm is a country domain that stopped meaning its country a long time ago: it is Micronesia's, and it is used by radio stations everywhere for the obvious reason.
