I'm streaming this through the radioplayer app on my ipad via AirPlay to my Zeppelin Air , and it sounds ****ing awesome , no sound drop outs this morning ...... Love this station
I hope they don't mess with the processing too much. To my ears the online stream (via the Radioplayer app) sounds great.
Don't think so... They don't come from London at the moment. They building the studio's over there. This stream comes from Hull. So I guess that they gonna use other processing when they moved to London. Sounds like Breakaway processing or something.
I'm surprised there isn't even a basic website, but maybe websites are less necessary at this stage of a radio station's life because of social networks.
So musically, how is Team Rock different from Rock Radio or Planet Rock? Today I have tuned into those stations at different times and the sort of music they are playing seems to be the same as Team Rock.
Teamrock is too heavy metal driven at the moment. I hear no other rockstyles. I can't listen to heavy metal for hours, so more variety is important for keep listeners.
Team Rock sounds a bit like a softer version of Kerrang! (no bad thing) where as Planet Rock tends to be full of older stuff. The tests are a good mix of music and are making up for the lack of Kerrang! here
I guess this is not there final format, because in there press release they mentioned about a station with a broad variety of rock music and styles, from The Beatles to Sepultura and back.
Worth trying a full reset, which will purge any defunct stations that might still be taking up memory. A simple rescan usually just adds any new streams it finds, but doesn't clear out the old ones. A full reset usually involves finding an option in the menus, holding down the select or info button, or something along those lines, depending on the model.
I have three DAB's and one wont find it after endless rescans, the other ones will?
There's been quite a bit of this reported anecdotally. Not heard of issues like this before. Has D1 hit some sort of maximum shit quality service threshold? How many average punters are going to know/be willing to perform factory resets to pick up TeamRock and future new services?

I tuned in Sunday morning, around 8:30am.
I heard a power metal band (Dragonforce) and then some very shouty, growly thrash thing. That's not my cup of tea, so I retuned to Planet Rock.

Can I make a guess...
'Owner of a lonely heart' was being played?:)
In my opinion when TeamRock is playing too loud music in daytime hours the listeners run away. So I'm curious what they gonna play. At the moment it's too heavy sometimes, but when they play songs less louder than heavy metal it reminds me more of a second Planet Rock or Real XS station, so more of the same.

So no matter what they do they can't win, then.
Play heave metal and it's "too loud", play something softer and it's like Planet Rock.
I'm really enjoying TeamRock at the moment. I like it's mix of songs, and when I feel like something different to the usual pop-focused stations I listen to, it really satisfies my need for rock'n'roll.
I can see myself tuning into this station on quite a regular basis. Just hope they don't mess with the formula too much.

No, but this station must be different from the rest to make any sense. I thought they gonna play tracks from The Beatles to Sepultura and back, so a broad mix of different styles of rock. It's unilateral at the moment and too heavy in daytime hours and for listening longer than an hour.

Hopefully Nicky can take Planet Rocks supply of Joe Bonamassa CDs with him.
They must have read your post.

Most of my listening is in the car, so I will probably be flicking between PR, TS and Teamrock.
I wonder if the receiver has hit the maximum number of services it can store?
What make/model is it?

Never had this problem on FM. :rolleyes:
I have - BBC Radio Lancashire broadcast on 103.9 , couldn't tune that high. Ditto Century 105, 100.4 JFM, Central Radio, and Preston FM....
