Laser 558 Classic

Laser 558 Classic is deep in the United Kingdom's listing, at 386 of 466. 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.

The open count against Laser 558 Classic 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.

Laser 558 Classic broadcasts in English, which is the language most of the United Kingdom's stations in the directory use. The country's listing records six languages in total, so the English stations are the body of the dial rather than the whole of it.

The stream runs at 128 kbps, level with the United Kingdom's median. Bitrate stops being interesting once a station is at the local norm, and the useful question moves on to whether the stream stays up, which no snapshot can answer.

The stream is served from s6.autopo.st, an address two other entries in the United Kingdom use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
