Question

geo-locked radio station.

Hi,
So, it seems that that many of my saved stations are (now) geo-locked. Can anybody then recommend a service that is not geo locked? The main reason that I bought the Sonos product is so that I can listen to these stations!

Hi @Atomic Dog.

Welcome, thank you for reaching out to Sonos Community.

You could probably try to Add an Internet radio station to Sonos using your computer.

Add this URL: https://mytuner-radio.com/

It may or may not find the stations you're looking for.

Let us know if it works. If you need help with any other information, please be sure to let us know.

Hi, I’ve already tried mytuner-radio, to no avail I’m afraid. I now have a product that does not play what I bought it for!

Not much Sonos can do as it’s a legal restriction placed on Tune in. If you can find the streaming url for the radio station you can set it up manually via the add a station. There is a big thread on this somewhere.

    As bockersjv points out, there is a thread pinned at the head of this very sub forum.
