GOLD 905

The directory lists two streams in Singapore under this name, told apart by a number alone. This page is number nine hundred and five. Nothing here is taken from the other one.

Out of 25 entries in Singapore, this one ranks 7. 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 melisten station on a dial where melisten is one of the commonest tags: 12 entries in Singapore lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how Singapore's broadcasters describe themselves.

The audio comes from playerservices.streamtheworld.com, and 15 other stations in Singapore 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 Singapore's listing stops answering at once and nothing is wrong with any of the stations in it.

GOLD 905 keeps its own site at melisten.sg. The address sits under Singapore's country code, which lines up with where the directory says the station broadcasts from.
