BBC World Service

My Pure DAB/FM/INTERNET radio picks up the BBC World Service in DAB and the signal is very strong. In the same room, my Sony XDR-S60DBP tells me that the station is "OFF-AIR". Autotune makes no difference. Can anyone explain why this is so (I know not-a-lot about radios, I'm afraid). Thank you!

I AM sorry - I know even less than I thought. The model is XDR-S40DBP. Apologies!

Hi there

Could one radio be connecting via DAB, whilst the other is using the internet stream of which one has gone temporarily off-air.

Just a pure guess to be honest.

Cheers

Hi papadri,

in addition to Quinnicus post..

Is the BBC Wotkd service saved as a preset channel, either way, try doing a rescan to see if this rectifies the problem..
