警察廣播電臺 - 臺中分臺 FM 94.5

Rank 51 of 57 in Taiwan. What that mostly measures is how many people have already found the station through this directory, which is a poor proxy for anything else and an honest one to publish.

The open count against 警察廣播電臺 - 臺中分臺 FM 94.5 is one, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

A emergency & public safety station on a dial where emergency & public safety is one of the commonest tags: 8 entries in Taiwan lead with it. The tags are broadcaster-supplied throughout, so read the count as how Taiwan's broadcasters describe themselves.

The stream is served as an HLS playlist, which is the format broadcasters use to switch bitrates on the fly and the one a plain browser audio element will not open. Nothing is wrong with the station; the player on this page simply cannot follow that kind of link without a library. The extension carries one and handles it.

The stream address on this entry points at stream.pbs.gov.tw, which is where 7 other stations in Taiwan 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.
