Brown Noise Radio

Position 167 of 466 puts this station in the middle of the United Kingdom's directory presence. The middle is worth browsing precisely because the ordering has stopped sorting by fame and has not yet stopped sorting at all.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where the United Kingdom's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

Its audio comes from uk1.internet-radio.com. One other station in the United Kingdom streams from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

Brown Noise Radio publishes at brownnoiseradio.com, on a generic domain. Most stations do; it carries no information about location and it is linked here so you can check the source rather than take this page's word for anything.
