I used to listen to the radio on Alexa, but the BBC decided that was too
convenient for us, so withdrew their services. I also used Sonos for day
listening, but the casual BBC use has gone from that, one needs to sign in
now. I now listen to radio Manx or streamed Classic FM.

I can only get a DAB signal upstairs in a room facing north so I
hang the supplied internal aerial from a pin pushed into the
ceiling with the floppy aerial inside a length of 11mm? oval
conduit to keep it straight and vertical.

I had an external aeriel for mine years ago, these days I mostly just
listen to BBC Sounds on the phone and bluetooth the signal to earphones,
Google Nest, or other bluetooth speakers. I have a DAB radio in the
kitchen window where the signal is OK but don't use it much now.

They could have a repeater on the top of Snaefell to service the west
coast of Cumbria.

Indeed, but I think I would want to know before spending money on
equipment.

The Radioplayer app on Sonos provides BBC stations without signing in.

So does the native "Sonos Radio" app.

However BBC Sounds provides more, such as remembering your position in a
podcast played on another device and it also accesses your subscribed
programme list. Registering with the BBC is no hardship as you can use an
anonymous name/email and I'm not even sure I had to confirm my email
address.

I can say where I was - Pewsey in Wiltshire, totally dead area, need
external aerial with masthead amp AND distribution amp. Lots of conspiracy
theories about he the army suppresses radio signals there (north edge of
Salisbury Plain). Brilliant here in Alderholt, get everything on a portable.

DAB coverage is pretty good on my car radio - in the SE probably better
than FM. But I do have a very posh aerial on the car.

Which BBC station have they removed?

I’ve just checked our Alexa - at least with BBC R4- it works fine.

You may be using a different ‘skill’.

Ours announces BBC Sounds so, I assume, that is the skill - it is ages
since I set it up.

I use Global player for Classic FM, our normal station.

I had to reset my internet radio this morning, it was having a funny turn.
It could see ‘all’ the BBC stations so the BBC are still on the internet.

I’m a fan of DAB. We now have it in all the vehicles and we have several
portables.

That said, we use Alexa mainly at home- mainly as it is convenient, we’ve
various things automated lights, security cameras, doorbell, ………

Yes Pewsey seems to be the land that time forgot! Nothing to do with the
army locally just the powers that be not affording DAB coverage
there!...
