Hi Yusuf
I agree with all you say, and note with irritation that Five Live
commentaries aren't often broadcast online for rights reasons. As posted in
my Email to Sam, we receive an extremely poor DAB reception here, so
listening to Five Live is my only outlet via the Sonata, the PC or through
the Sky box we have.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

Sam, I've got the Sonata radio from Wireless for the Blind. As I'm on
various benefits its a loan player.
Once its set up, and usually they send someone out to help do that, its very
easy to manage. I've added various radio stations to the list on my radio,
I've also removed those that I don't want. I love having access to radio
from Cyprus and Turkey as well as the usual stuff from the UK. The only
thing you need to remember is that if your a football fan, you may find that
some of the matches aren't broadcast over the internet. 5live sometimes
aren't allowed to broadcast the match on their web site, so when that
happens you won't get access through the Sonata.
It can be a bit verbose, but once you get used to its ways you can quickly
move through the lists of stations, categories etc.
I've got my radio set up in the kitchen and it works very well wirelessly.
It also gives you access to the TNAUK audio membership, obviously you have
to subscribe to that separately, although there's a good discount if you do.
You get access to quite a few podcast by default and your supposed to be
able to subscribe yourself to others, although I haven't worked out how to
do this yet.
