I’m sure they do, that’s something you’re going to have to check at the Sangean 
US web site.

2017-01-17 Thread Donald L. Roberts
Since we do not have DAB radio in the United States, does Sanjean make a 
comparable model to the DDR66 without DAB?

Slot loading multi format CD player
DAB/FM/Internet radio
10 Presets each for DAB, FM and Internet radio
Spotify Connect
DLNA/USB Music Player
Bluetooth Streaming
Aux Input
Headphone, Line and digital outputs
Fantastic stereo sound through two speakers in acoustically

NFC Bluetooth pairing
Remote controller through remote control unit and accessible Undok App
Two Alarm Timers
Records Radio/CD to USB stick or SSD Memory card
Compatible with Dual Wi-Fi 2.4/5GHZ bands
WPS Wi-Fi connect
The DDR66 seems to be now readily available though this always 
hasn’t been the case, one of the people I know who has one resides 
in the U.K. and he had no trouble getting hold of one of these sets.

Updated list of BBC network radio URLs | Blog My Wiki!

2017-01-17 Thread Dane Trethowan
Hi!
Here’s an updated list - well updated in 2015 - of direct URL’S for most BBC 
Radio Stations though I don’t think these are the 320K streams that I published 
last year.
Anyway they should work with Total Recorder just fine, they work with VLC here.

I published all available 320K URL’S to the BBC to the list several months ago.
