Quality is also questionable in a lot of circumstances, it was one of those things that could have been AMAZING but didn't properly take off in the UK, with support and uptake being mediocre!

The biggest disappointment apart from patchy signal is the bit rate, it went much more down the quantity of stations over the quality and as such a lot of it is very low rate mono with the FM Stereo being a better sound!!!

Special interest and talk stations work best, I did find a funky 80s station, but it was very broad strokes with big hits and whilst No Repeat that was per day and the avertising always gets to me too
