XerosRadio

At position 214 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.

The open count against XerosRadio is two, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

XerosRadio reports no bitrate to the directory. Rather than print a zero or invent an average, the page says nothing, which is the same policy every empty field on this site gets.

XerosRadio streams in AAC while most of the Netherlands' dial is MP3. Codec choice is mostly invisible to a listener, and it is one of the clearest fingerprints of which hosting provider a station uses, since providers default their customers into a format and few customers ever change it.

The stream is served from az.streamxerosradio.duckdns.org, an address one other entry in the Netherlands uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
