Hi Darran
It seems to be one of these apps that only works at certain times. If you
manage to get to the radio button, which I can do, it normally reads part of
the Premiership results for February last year, and that is an indication
that there is nothing on. When I downloaded it, there was plenty on, but
not now so it seems. Sky just want our money!!
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

Hi List.
Following Jackie's recommendation I've downloaded this app, but I can't get
anything out of the radio area.
Does it only broadcast at certain times? Or is there some kind of jiggery
pokery needed to make it spring into life.
I can get the screen on the Touch that says Sky Radio, but that's all I get!
Thanks.
Darran
