Radio 10 non-stop

Radio 10 non-stop ranks 20 among 302 stations in the Netherlands. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

Among 302 stations in the Netherlands here, this is the only one that puts top hits first. The top hits rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

Radio 10 non-stop streams at 128 kbps, under the Netherlands' median of 192 kbps. A lower rate is not automatically worse: speech carries perfectly well below the music threshold, and a station built for phones on a weak connection has a good reason to encode this way.

The audio comes from playerservices.streamtheworld.com, and 32 other stations in the Netherlands are served from the same address. That is a streaming platform carrying many broadcasters rather than a station running its own server, which is worth knowing for a practical reason: when a platform has a bad night, a whole block of the Netherlands' listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.
