newhome Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Crap! Turned another room upside down and found it in a crate. An hour after ordering a replacement. Still no sign of the remote and I didn’t order one of those ?. Maybe I’ll email them and ask if I can swap for a remote .... Now to see whether it works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newhome Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Found the bloody remote now too! FML! Don’t think much of the radio so far. The date is right but the time is 2 hours slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newhome Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Ah well it's connected to my iPhone and playing tunes. That's enough for one day after several hours searching for the bits to make that happen. It looks like several more bombs have hit elsewhere however where I've sorted through piles and piles of crap to find them. Tomorrow's issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The remote is pretty crap for something so expensive TBH! Being a digital type tech job I reckon the remote is a backup control option and your meant to download an app and use that. A quick search brings up an app called undok . Install this and see if it's better to use. Spotify is great to use. I have it on my Sonos and the song list is endless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bit of an eclectic taste in music but doesn't really encompass techno / indie. Prefer rock mostly but have Vancouver Sleep Clinic on at the mo as in chill out mode.

I only use it for trance, eurodance etc. Look at Radio Channels and you can scroll through the genres. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newhome Posted May 8, 2018 Author Share Posted May 8, 2018 Refund processed for the now not required PSU. Not that it was the end of the world if I ended up with 2 but always nice to see good customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
