ДДР

ДДР is deep in Russia's listing, at 443 of 471. Down here the ordering barely orders anything: the difference between one position and the next is often a single recorded open, so treat the neighbours below as a shelf rather than as a ranking.

ДДР has a zero in the directory's open count. It is the least interesting number on this page and the one most likely to be misread, so it is worth being plain: it measures traffic through radio-browser, not audience.

At 192 kbps the stream is on the better side of Russia's dial, where the median is 128 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.

The stream is served from radio2.4m3.ru, which no other entry in Russia uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.

Their site is 4m3.ru, a domain registered in Russia. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.
