Karadeniz FM

Karadeniz FM ranks 24 among 369 stations in Türkiye. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

Karadeniz FM has 28 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.

At 63 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Türkiye's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

This one is HLS, a segmented format rather than a single continuous stream. It is worth knowing because the failure is specific and fixable rather than a dead station: the address works, the browser just cannot open that shape of address unaided.

The stream address on this entry points at moondigitaledge.radyotvonline.net, which is where 19 other stations in Türkiye 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.
