Auralis Radio

Auralis Radio is deep in Sweden's listing, at 71 of 94. 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.

Auralis Radio broadcasts in English from Sweden. That is a minority language on the national dial, where Swedish leads, but not a small one: 56 stations in Sweden in the directory carry English, which is a substantial second listing inside the first.

The shelf for the language holds 5,984 stations, led by United States. A station like this one broadcasting from Sweden is what stops that shelf from being a second copy of one country's hub.

The ambient corner of Sweden's dial is three stations deep in this snapshot. Small clusters like that are usually the most rewarding thing on a country page, because they are what the national broadcasters at the top of the list are not.

Twice the local median and then some: 320 kbps where Sweden's stations typically manage 128. Whether you can hear the difference depends entirely on what you are listening on, but the headroom is there.

Auralis Radio streams from auralis-radio.com. No other station in Sweden is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.
