TMM 2 (HQ)

The directory lists two streams in the United Kingdom under this name, told apart by a number alone. This page is number two. Nothing here is taken from the other one.

Among the 466 stations in the United Kingdom with pages, TMM 2 (HQ) 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.

Alternative covers 6 of the United Kingdom's entries. Tags on this site are always the broadcaster's own first tag and never a second one, because a station tagged five ways would otherwise appear on five shelves and turn each of them into a tag cloud.

Across every country, TMM 2 (HQ) is 30 of the 124 stations leading with alternative, by the same open count the country list uses.

The stream is encoded at 256 kbps, more than twice the 128 kbps median for the United Kingdom. Bitrate is the one quality figure the public directory carries, and on this entry it is unambiguous.

Its audio comes from listen-msmn.sharp-stream.com. Three other stations in the United Kingdom stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

TMM 2 (HQ) publishes at themusicmachine.co.uk. The domain's country code is not the country the directory files the station under, which happens often enough with hosted stations and diaspora broadcasters to be unremarkable, and is still a difference this page will point out rather than hide.
