We check a live channel every few minutes rather than continuously, so these numbers are estimates built from 51 observations. Coverage is the share of the broadcast those observations account for; confidence combines that coverage with how many samples we took and whether we saw the stream end. Time we did not observe is excluded from the averages rather than filled in.
