Radio Bergeijk FLAC

The country's dial has two sizeable languages on it and this station is on the smaller one. 89 entries in the Netherlands broadcast in English, against a listing whose commonest language is Dutch.

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.

Radio Bergeijk FLAC is the only station in the Netherlands whose first tag is flac, out of 302 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in the Netherlands does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only flac station.

The stream is 128 kbps where the Netherlands' median is 192. Below the country's middle, which usually points at an older encoder or a deliberate choice to stay light, and matters far more for music than for talk.

The stream is OGG, which is unusual anywhere: the Netherlands' listing is dominated by MP3. Formats outside the common three are typically a deliberate choice by a broadcaster who cares about the encoding chain, and they are also the ones most likely to give a browser trouble.
