RE: FM transmitter

["White, Peter" <peter.white@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Probably not practical, and it's only for one station, but I get Radio
1
over here (in the US) via a Sirius subscription which is tied into Sonos.

You can also just surf to the BBC radio websites and listen live or listen
again, there's no restrictions on the Real Media feed, so you could just
have an old PC take care of that for you.

How about feeding the Sky BBC output into the line input of the Sonos
system
?
