YES 933

Among 25 stations in Singapore with pages here, this one is opened most often. Being first on that list is worth knowing mostly because it says where other listeners started, which is a better opening move than an alphabet.

YES 933 has 37 recorded opens in the public directory, which is a real number by the standards of this data set. Most entries never reach double figures, so a count at this level means the stream has been found and played repeatedly by people using directory clients rather than the broadcaster's own site.

This is a Chinese station in a country whose directory presence is led by English. Five entries in Singapore broadcast in Chinese, which is a small group and a coherent one, and browsing it is a different experience from browsing the country.

Where else Chinese is on air, according to the same snapshot: mostly China, Taiwan and Hong Kong SAR China. The shelf lists all 1,229 of them together, which is the view a country hub cannot give.

The stream address on this entry points at playerservices.streamtheworld.com, which is where 15 other stations in Singapore are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.
