Is this possible? I've only had the car a week or so and I almost never listen to the radio, but when I do its for the news on radio 4. I am also famously gadget inept and prefer to scream "work you bastard!" at any non functioning doodad, rather than try anything logical. This appraoch has so far yielded no results with the Ro's radio, neither has some frenzied button pushing. I even looked at the owner's manual and can't figure it out. So is 95.5fm achievable and if so how?
Thanks.

Johnny.

I suppose you have tried, on RHS radio there are Tune buttons, press up/down till the display shows freq you want.

I have achieved radio 4 on my ro radio. found i could pick up much more if i turned LOC off and did a manual tune to the frequency using the buttons directly above FF FR. but be warned the RO radio is not the greatest at picking up a radio signal in some areas.

hope this helps

I think they broadcast at different frequencies in different parts of UK. Drove to Cornwall and back at weekend and had to retune radio a few times

They do, that's why you need RDS. Locks on the station not the frequency. Non of which is an option on the Ro mind, as they don't have RDS in Oz..

Radio 4 - what a great station.

The talk is sensible (most of the time); no inane DJ chit (cr*p) chat.

Sorry - can't help with the tuning thought.
