I just had a look at the BBC Radio section in the WiiM Home App and couldn't believe it was such a mess. They have attempted to separate stations into "Local", "Nations & Regions" and "National" stations but failed. I am not sure how regions are distinguished from local or Nations from National but the sections are mixed up anyway. Out of 68 stations only 37 are listed. I wish I hadn't looked now 😀

It has always been a complete mess. Since when was Radio Predication a BBC Radio Station?
 
Trying to workout how I listen to BBC radio 5 live sports extra ? I want to watch the cricket on tv (sky) but listen to Test Match Special commentary thought it would be easy through the Wiim but can’t find radio 5 live sports extra nor indeed radio 5 live , oh I’m in the UK
 
One way is to use the BBC Sounds app from a phone or tablet to cast Radio 5 Sports Extra to the Wiim. The problem is that the commentary and the video may not be in sync. Some times I listen to TMS on DAB and if there is a wicket I can walk from my study to the living room and watch the wicket live on Sky Sports (via Now TV).
