Language, country and where this sitsComputed from the directory record of 4 Oct 2026

Position 64 of 302 in the Netherlands. The ordering is a click count and nothing more, but at this depth it still separates stations meaningfully, which stops being true further down the same list.

Broadcasting in English from the Netherlands, alongside 88 other stations there doing the same. Dutch is the country's commonest broadcast language in this directory, so this is the second shelf of a bilingual listing.

The shelf for the language holds 5,984 stations, led by United States. A station like this one broadcasting from the Netherlands is what stops that shelf from being a second copy of one country's hub.

Nothing else in the Netherlands' listing leads with 00’s. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

At 128 kbps, this sits below most of the Netherlands' listing, whose median is 192 kbps. 77% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better, so the dial around it is mostly higher.

The stream address on this entry points at playerservices.streamtheworld.com, which is where 32 other stations in the Netherlands 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.

Position in the Netherlands list, most played at the right.

These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.

Broadcast by 538 Classics. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at www.538.nl.

Station details come from the public radio-browser directory and are reproduced as recorded there. If you run this station and something here is wrong, or you would rather the page did not exist, write to us from the support page and we will fix or remove it.
