NRK P1 Rogaland

Out of 66 entries in Norway, this one ranks 15. The upper quarter of a national list is an interesting place to be: well known enough to have accumulated opens, not so well known that it is the station everybody already had.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

Where Norway's stations mostly use MP3, this one uses AAC+. Worth a line only because it is a difference, and because the country page's format breakdown is one of the quicker ways to see which providers a national dial runs on.

The stream is served from lyd.nrk.no, an address five other entries in Norway use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.

The broadcaster publishes at nrk.no, on Norway's own country domain. A national domain is a small piece of evidence that the station is what the directory says it is, since these are the harder ones to register from somewhere else.
