Can you get just a single stations details via the raw data interface? The region 1 (all) stations.json.gz is currently about 150 kbytes, uncompressed about 1.7 Mbytes. The web page with a single stations data is less than 40 kbytes with the wanted data on line 189. The Region 1 .json file has 1489 lines, unless you have an early station number you're going to be loading a lot of lines to find the one you're interested in, not to mention downloading 4 times as much data in the first place...
OK you get all the station info from the stations.json file but the orginal request was to be alerted if the station was running and no signals were being received by the Blitzortung servers.
