A warning to all about a new dab station.
Smooth Christmas is already broadcasting all the tracks you have come to
expect..
I just don't see the point.

Even worse it took the place of the plain version. Never has my alarm
been switched off so quickly. Well not since I used to use Radio 2 and
that had to be turned off sharpish when that Feltz woman started at 5.00.

'Vanilla' Smooth is now only available on the local muxes (though not
all of them). Mind you where it is on a local mux, it's in stereo
(except the Notts, Lecis, and Derby muxes) Confused yet ?

Will it appear on its own or do I have to do a new Set Up?

On my receivers, selecting Smooth gets the new station, and after a few
seconds the name updates to SmthXmas

Who was worse?
Terry Wogan or that awful Feltz woman?

Did Terry ever get up at 5.00 am? My radio splutters into life at 4.50
and I like to lie there listening to it for a bit before getting up at
about 5.15.

There is a normal version one click anti clockwise on my dab. I do though
feel that dab has now got too many stations in mono on it.

I had no issue with Terry, but the problem with her is that shee seems far
too awake. Its just not right.

There is nothingmuch on at those times. Indeed often its right where world
service or 5 live tend to be turned off and programming on the channel
starts. This is usually with some news of doom and gloom of course.
