Radio Voice of Van

This is one of the quieter entries in Lebanon's listing, at 24 of 37. 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.

Armenian from Lebanon, one of only three such entries the directory holds for the country. The national listing leads with Arabic, which is what makes this worth pointing at.

There is no Armenian shelf on this site: the language sits below the cut for one in the current snapshot. The country hub carries the station instead, which is the axis that covers every entry without exception.

The armenian corner of Lebanon's dial is two stations deep in this snapshot. Small clusters like that are usually the most rewarding thing on a country page, because they are what the national broadcasters at the top of the list are not.

At 32 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Lebanon's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

The stream is served from vovan.s3ming.com, an address one other entry in Lebanon uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
