Title: Wants to load a diff radio station
Post by: JT210 on February 10, 2021, 07:16:07 am

Just started happening, was fine before. Asking for TalkRadio she wants to give me Radio City Talk from tunein which isn’t available anyway. Driving me mad!

Any ideas? I’ve rebooted to no avail.

you may need to be more specific like give the call letters or numbers in addition to talk radio.  There are a lot of talk radio stations.   you may also want to see if there is an alexa skill for your specific station.

OP are you in the UK? “Alexa, play TalkRadio” works fine for me. She responds “Playing TalkRadio from Wireless”. Try adding “...from Wireless” at the end of your request. (Wireless Group owns TalkRadio).
