When I get to radio 4 I then click the dial round once, twice, three times
etc in a clockwise direction and just keep getting back to radio 4 again. I
can eventually pick up classic Gold and I think korr before that, but
anything before those but after radio 4 just doesn't happen. I haven't had
sighted help yet. I tried when I was in an electrical store, but the
digital reception was terrible. a friend who lives around 5 mins away can
get century, jazz fm, Smooth and one or two others. So it's the regional
multiplex that I have problems with I think. I can get some local stations,
but they're more city based like Magic etc.

Hi
I can't see how thsi could be happening. I thought that when you tried to
tune into a station you either got that station or nothing, as tuning is
done by station name, and Radio Four and Century are on different
multiplexes. Can you describe exactly what happens when you try to tune
into Century? Have you had any sighted help to make sure that you have the
right station selected in the station list and to describe what's happening
on the screen?
Anyway, hope you have more luck with your new talking radio.
James
