Bear Metal Radio

Among the 126 stations in Switzerland with pages, Bear Metal Radio is around the halfway mark. Anything in this stretch is reachable from the country's numbered pages rather than from its front table, which is why those pages exist.

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

At 192 kbps the stream is on the better side of Switzerland's dial, where the median is 128 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.

The stream is served from cast5.asurahosting.com, which no other entry in Switzerland 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.

The broadcaster's own site is bearmetalradio.com. A .com address says nothing about where a station is, which is why the country on this page comes from the directory's own country field rather than from the domain.
