Голос Бирмы

Read as words rather than as a brand, the name says voice. That is the broadcaster's own description of the service, written in Cyrillic, and it is more specific than the tags the entry carries.

This is one of the quieter entries in Russia's listing, at 365 of 471. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

With one recorded open, Голос Бирмы sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Russia's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

Голос Бирмы broadcasts in Russian, which is the language most of Russia's stations in the directory use. The country's listing records six languages in total, so the Russian stations are the body of the dial rather than the whole of it.

Голос Бирмы streams at 128 kbps, which is exactly where Russia's dial sits: the country's median is 128 kbps. Being unremarkable on this axis is the normal case and it is fine. 53% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better.

The stream is served from listen4.myradio24.com, an address four other entries in Russia use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
