Virgin Radio Rockstar: Queen

Broadcasting in English from Italy, alongside 51 other stations there doing the same. Italian is the country's commonest broadcast language in this directory, so this is the second shelf of a bilingual listing.

The English shelf on this site collects every station in the language regardless of where it transmits from, and the directory's English entries are concentrated in United States, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom. Reading the shelf next to this page is the quickest way to see how far the language's dial actually reaches.

Virgin Radio Rockstar: Queen is the only station in Italy whose first tag is art rock, out of 400 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Italy does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only art rock station.

The stream address on this entry points at icy.unitedradio.it, which is where 32 other stations in Italy 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.
