New format?

Hello,

I'm listening to the Lynx right now, which I do regularly, and today it says it's the BBC2 (?) and has a lot of ads and news breaks. Is this a permanent change or just temporary? I tried to switch between your stations and they are all the same British station today. I hope this isn't the new format.

Thanks.

p.s. The Lynx is my favourite station (or set of stations)

Re: New format?

Just an update - I went direct to the website and tried playing it through there and it is working fine. What's going on with the Tune In radio app? I tried all your stations on there and it was all BBC2. I'm relieved that your station hasn't been taken over. I wonder how many other people have had the same problem.

Hi Cindy

Thanks for your post.

That is indeed very odd.

We did a test on the android TuneIn app and all 5 stations played as they should, but there could still be problems in other locations.

What city and country are you listening from?

Are you sending a Google Home voice command to play the stations, or are you using the TuneIn app directly from your phone?

Re: New format?

Thanks for replying :) I'm listening from Canberra, Australia through Chrome on my ipad, but I had tried to listen to it through the Tune In app on my ipad. Every Lynx station I tried through Tune In was BBC2 - but interestingly in the little info box at the bottom it showed the correct information (ie; the Lynx info). Very odd.

Sorry, I forgot to answer one of your questions - I was listening directly through the Tune In app on my iPad, not through the Google home thing.

Re: New format?

Thanks again Cindy!

We will test on our end and if need be, contact TuneIn for more information.

We will be in touch.

Hello,

Just an update, I tried Lynx again this morning through TuneIn and so far it's back to normal! :)

Thanks again,
Cindy
