Soulshow Radio

At position 209 of 302, this is one of the stations in the Netherlands that almost nobody arrives at by browsing. That is the case for having a page at all. A station reachable only by knowing its name is a station most directories lose.

Two recorded opens in the public directory. That is a trace rather than a measurement, and it is the reason this page describes where the station sits rather than how popular it is.

The directory records no language for Soulshow Radio. That gap is common and it is upstream of this site: broadcasters fill the field or they do not, and roughly a third of the stations with pages here have left it empty. It means the station appears on its country hub and not on any language shelf, which is the one place the omission costs it.

Soulshow Radio 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.

Its audio comes straight from icecast-soulshow-cdp.triple-it.nl, an address unique to this entry in the Netherlands' listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
