The directory lists two streams in the United States under this name, told apart by a number alone. This page is number one hundred and twenty-eight. Nothing here is taken from the other one.
SomaFM Metal Detector (128k AAC) is at position 104 of the 1,481 stations in the United States with pages here, inside the top quarter of the national listing. That is high enough to be reached by browsing rather than by searching, which is how most of these pages are actually found.
Three stations in the United States lead with the tag black metal, and SomaFM Metal Detector (128k AAC) is one of them. That is a small enough group to hear end to end, and the tags are the broadcasters' own words rather than a classification imposed here.
Encoded as AAC, one of the three formats the United States' stations use. The country page breaks all of them out with counts.
The stream address on this entry points at ice5.somafm.com, which is where 31 other stations in the United States 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.

SomaFM Metal Detector (128k AAC) is one of 3,967 playable stations the catalogue lists in United States, and one of the smaller number that say where in the country they transmit from.
These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
Broadcast by SomaFM Metal Detector (128k AAC). Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at somafm.com.
Station details come from the public radio-browser directory and are reproduced as recorded there. If you run this station and something here is wrong, or you would rather the page did not exist, write to us from the support page and we will fix or remove it.
