Bum Bum Radio

In Serbia's ordering this is number 41 of 128, which is the middle of the list. The stations either side of it are a better guide to what the country sounds like than the head of the list is, because the head is the same few famous streams in every country.

With three recorded opens, Bum Bum Radio sits in the part of the directory where the numbers stop discriminating. The station's position in Serbia's list should be read as approximate for exactly that reason.

Bum Bum Radio has no language recorded in the directory. We do not infer one. Guessing from the country would put every station in Serbia on the same shelf regardless of what it broadcasts, which is exactly the kind of filled-in blank that makes a directory untrustworthy.

The gap here is large: 48 kbps where Serbia's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream is served from bumbum.nlnet.rs:8443, which no other entry in Serbia 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.
