Chenyifaer Radio

Rank 1246 of 1,481 in the United States. 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.

No opens have been recorded against Chenyifaer Radio in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

Language and country do not match up the obvious way here. Chenyifaer Radio transmits from the United States, where English leads the listing, and broadcasts in Chinese, which 12 of the country's stations use.

Where else Chinese is on air, according to the same snapshot: mostly China, Taiwan and Hong Kong SAR China. The shelf lists all 1,229 of them together, which is the view a country hub cannot give.

The country page counts pop among its commonest tags, and this station is one of the 34 entries in the United States behind that count. Worldwide the tag leads 343 stations, which makes the rail below a very wide shelf.

Its audio comes straight from radio.chatcyf.com, an address unique to this entry in the United States' listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
