BBC Radio 2 in Canada

I’m new to Sonos land and have a bunch of the ikea / Sonos speakers that don’t all that fabulously with AirPlay. I’d like to access BBC radio here in Canada using Sonos app. I can’t find the URL for live steaming it. Anybody help?

Sonos Radio has it, at least in the USA. Can you not get that in Canada?

Sonos Radio, is there a search function when I’m looking for a specific station (not BBC, all done there, now I’m building my fave station list)? I can’t find one.

Just type the name into Search. Exactly how depends which app you are using.

I’ve tried. I failed. I’m in Sonos Radio. I can’t see a search anything anywhere - I’m using iOS. Various sections available; Sonos Presents, Sonos Stations, Local Radio etc. No search. I’m looking for a uk station prob based on London so I go there. Lots and lots of stations. Prob missing it in the literally hundreds. But swiping down doesn’t show a search. Any other ideas?

You should see 5 icons at the bottom of the screen. 4th along is search. On the Search screen select Stations and then start typing the station name you want.

    That worked! I had not considered that the search was relative to where I was at, so to speak. Fantastic group here, so helpful, and tolerant too. Very grateful for all your help.
