Михаил Круг Радио

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

Out of 471 entries in Russia, this one ranks 83. 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.

A discography station on a dial where discography is one of the commonest tags: 15 entries in Russia lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how Russia's broadcasters describe themselves.

Worldwide it ranks 2 among 46 discography entries, which is worth roughly as much as the count behind it and no more.

The audio comes from stream02.pcradio.app, and 19 other stations in Russia are served from the same address. That is a streaming platform carrying many broadcasters rather than a station running its own server, which is worth knowing for a practical reason: when a platform has a bad night, a whole block of Russia's listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.

Михаил Круг Радио and Юрий Шатунов Радио are described by the directory in very nearly the same fields, which makes the differences between them worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred. On recorded opens this entry sits higher in the country list than the other one does.
