    I always listen to the build up to the Melbourne Cup on Radio Sport 927 but, since I changed my computer everything I can get all the things I couldn’t get before but not Radio sport [which I could]. I can get recorded interviews etc but not live radio. Does anyone have a link that could get me onto it [or know an alternative Australian channel].

    You’re welcome Mo :-)
    Are you being geographically blocked by Radio Sport ?

    It says ‘we didn’t find any playable stream’. Whenever my son looks at the computer he always leaves something not working! I’ll ask the chap at the computer shop where I bought it. Having been without a computer for a while I daren’t risk
    downloading something that might cause a problem.

    Did you put “Radio Sport 927” into Google Search, Moe?

    I’m finding lots of links to working live streams for that radio station on there.

    Yes, and tried most of them making sure it was the middle of the night and that live racing would be on! Haven’t yet tried any links to the Breeders Cup either. At least I’ve got a while to get it sorted. I like having Radio Sport on because I pretend I’m in Australia [bit sad really…]

    They are broadcasting now.

    It is probably something quite simple to be sorted for you.

    Got it on my tablet and found another channel that works on the computer. Scared to turn it off now!

    Thanks wit; I’ll check it out. Saw lots of money going on The Offer today so backed it; no idea if it’s a definite runner or anything about it [other than it has won over 2 miles].50/1

    I’ve got Radio sport on now [in fact it’s been on all night…scared to turn it off in case it doesn’t come back on again]. I wish we had a race in this country that grabbed the attention of the whole nation the way the Melbourne Cup does. I daren’t even mention racing to anyone these days; it seems to be so frowned upon by most people.
