[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 1092229, member: 176256"] I have two internet radios but I'm afraid that I may not be much use as I bought them (in about 2015) for specific purposes. In the UK I have a Pure One Flow. This is a combined FM/DAB/Internet radio and I can save stations for each of those bands separately. Most of the time I use it to listen to Radio Caroline which is saved as Favourite Station 1. When we went to Venice three years ago I took it with us so I could listen to The Archers on Radio 4. I also put Radio 2 on for my wife. The stations available to store are listed alphabetically and, IIRC, can be allocated to any memory position, you don't have to go 1, 2, 3... etc. But when you look at stored favourites it always starts at 1 so you would have scroll through quite a few if you decided to start further down the numbers. The radio was supposed to replace an old AM/FM portable as well but the circuitry introduces a delay to the FM stations, as well as the DAB and internet ones so is seldom used for that. I have a few DAB stations (Absolute Classic Rock, Radio 4, Radio 2) stored as well. The radio only has one speaker but I have fed the earphone output into a set of computer speakers and it sounded OK to me. Prior to that I made the mistake of buying a Sony NAS-C5E Giga Juke Internet Radio Player. This had great sound from its built-in amplifier and speakers but was crippled by the internet stations it could (or rather couldn't) access. I should have known better. I've been burned by Sony stuff before as it promises much but then find out that it fails in some stupid Sony-way-of-doing-things. For France I have an internet radio tuner that I can't remember the name of! It feeds into my DVD surround sound system. There's a remote control to switch in and out of standby and change stations. The stations are stored by accessing the tuner using my laptop, I think by simply navigating to the tuner IP address and then searching there. I think there are two banks of 6 favourites. [/QUOTE]
