ГУСЬ.Фонк

ГУСЬ.Фонк is deep in Russia's listing, at 368 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.

The open count against ГУСЬ.Фонк is one, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

ГУСЬ.Фонк is the only station in Russia whose first tag is hardwave, out of 471 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Russia does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only hardwave station.

The encode is 192 kbps against a country median of 128. Comfortably above the middle of Russia's listing without being one of its outliers.

Its audio comes from stream3.radiogoose.ru. Three other stations in Russia stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.
