Hi Peter
It could be, but it's great to have found an alternative as well. We have
such a poor, poor DAB signal here that using the Sonata or now the iPod
Touch is my only way round it unless I use the Sky Plus box, and I don't
like doing that if it is being used by someone to watch a TV programme.
Kind Regards,

Jackie, could the reason why you can't get the tenis on your Sonata radio is
probably because it gets its information from a server in Holand.
