Диско-радио SOVA

Диско-радио SOVA ranks 82 among 471 stations in Russia. 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.

Russia's directory presence is led by Russian, with 78 stations broadcasting in English behind it. Диско-радио SOVA is one of that second group, large enough that the country hub prints it as its own bar rather than folding it into a remainder.

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.

Nothing else in Russia's listing leads with 80's. The tag is self-declared, which makes it a statement of how the broadcaster positions itself rather than a classification anyone audited, and on this dial that statement is unique.

Twice the local median and then some: 256 kbps where Russia's stations typically manage 128. Whether you can hear the difference depends entirely on what you are listening on, but the headroom is there.
