You may need to retune occasionally when having poor reception for Viva 104.3 or 104.5 FM and Rock FM 98.5 or 106.7 and vice versa.

I had to retune car radio for Viva as it wasn't picking up, so maybe worth a try?

Not been to CY since Nov19
I used to listen to Rock FM and/or Sunshine. I seem to remember that Sunshine had gone, but, what's Viva?
Thanks

Viva is Dave Asher's new station. it's pretty much the same as Sunshine but different owners.

Until recently I could get Rock FM in the UK via Tunein but not now. And Viva I can get via an Amazon Echo but again not on Tunein...
Very frustrating!

I switched from TuneIn to myTuner mainly to be able to get VIva as it doesn't broadcast as far as Polis. Works just the same plus it's also available on Sonos.

There was a period when Alexa wouldn’t play Rock Fm with the “Alexa, play rock fm Cyprus” but by saying “Alexa, stream rock fm Cyprus” it worked ok. Might be worth trying this with other stations?
