Ah - thanks. I was sure I searched the FAQ but must have made a mistake with the terms I used. The old Olympics entry still turns up in the search results but returns a "not found". http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/announcements/london2012_radio_online
Interestingly the FAQ search function gives a possible clue about what the technical reason might be for not resuming streaming in the 3 weeks between the events ... perhaps induced by the GB gold spree ... when searching for Paralympics is asks if I meant Paralytics!
