Phone picks up radio station

I live in Hull, and just recently my phone has started to pick up WBZ at a level such that I am unable to use the phone. WBZ sent me an inline rfi phone filter, but it doesn't help.
I don't want to have to rewire my house. Does anyone have any practical solutions to this problem?
Thanks

You can try using a different telephone. Some telephones can hear radio stations much easier than others. You can also try experimenting with different lengths of phone cords. Flat wire acts like an antenna. You can have Verizon install radio noise suppressors at the telephone and a rfi filter outside where the line enters your home.

Garageband picking up strange radio stations with Griffin Guitar cable?

I have just purchased the Griffin Garageband Guitar Cable and have it working with my electric guitar BUT I can hear in the background some foreign radio stations . This is particularly noticeable when using the guitar effects . Any solutions to this ?

that kind of sounds like the shield in the cable might be broken. it might be a good idea to return it for a replacement

Background sounds of a radio station, like i am picking up a radio frequency

I have a hp pavilion g series and this problem started last week, just all of a sudden i could hear what sounded like a radio station in the background, i closed out all the programs and still hear the talking, when even only the icons are up and no program is running. It seems like it is hidden and i can not find whats running

Reminds me of my grad school days in Rochester, NY, when vinyl was the source of all music. I had a decent stereo system for an impoverished student, but imagine my surprise when I learned, and not gently, that the phono cartridge in my turntable was perfectly attuned to receive the radio frequency used by the Rochester public transit bus dispatcher, whose signal was very strong indeed. I might be grooving along to Jefferson Starship, the Grateful Dead or Pink Floyd, gently ratlling the windows throughout our apartment and adjoining houses, puffing on a little of this or a little of that, when without warning I would be jolted out of my chair and across the room by an ear-shattering interjection of static-laden and distorted verbiage about the University Avenue local D bus, whose driver had just been vomited on my a drunk and needed advice about how to handle it. It was a real mood-spoiler for me. I replaced my phonograph cartridge and the problem was solved

Listening to streaming/online radio stations?

Hi there!
Is anyone here who manages to listen to MP3 streaming radio stations? shoutcast.com requires flash, so it does not work with my slide 3600.... The *.pls playlists from mobtuner.com are not recognized by my phone, though the 3600 slide could play streaming MP3 it does not recoginze *.pls files. I can only shake my head when i look at this....
So, who of you listens to such stations and what Nokia do you use?
Best regards
Malte

i found the easiest is to use Internet Radio in the radio applications within Series60 phones. again, Nokia seem to be putting the top-notch features in Series60 phones rather than Series40, in order to differentiate the phone ranges. It seems that you are indeed searching for many features not available in Series40 but are standard on Series60. Actually, it might not be a bad idea for you to buy a N-series or other Series60 device, maybe one that has been on the market for a while and isn't that expensive, in order for you to satisfy your mulitmedia cravings. I have a N78 and i think now its price point is getting quite cheap, so maybe you can pick up something similar for a bargain
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

Radio station seemingly broken

I on a daily basis listen to my free itunes radio station from home to work from my phone, then pick up the rest of the day on my mac at work. Today though, one of my radio stations seems to be looping three songs that i had flagged to not play again. Im not sure how to fix this problem other than dont play that station.

The problem is starting to spread. I have three radio stations that I listen to per artist. It happens primarily when im at work, but I will flag a song to never play again. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt, but i hit thie button and providing i have skips left, the song will stop playing and go to the next one, but the next one is the exact same song i just flagged to not play again. So i flag it again to not play again (thinking its another version of the song) and it plays again.

I use my iphone 3G to listen to radio stations. Now get "no volume available" message. Anyone had this problem?

I just found the earbuds that came with the phone still in the box, plugged them in & it's letting me listen to radio.com. When I unplug them I go back to 'no volume available'.

How to save the radio station you just listened as a playlist?

Make a save radio station button.. to listen them as a playlist later.

Please!! One of, if not the, main reason I got Premium is to be able to use this on my phone in offline mode. I love the Offline feature of spotify, but is limited to playlists. Usually I end up adding a public playlist of the genre I'm interested in, but can be tedious and oftentime will have too few or too many songs for me to sync with my phone to listen while I'm out and about and not use up my phone's data plan.
If a random sample of music from a station could be added as a playlist, this would make Spotify about perfect for me. Say being able to choose 10, 25, 50, 100, 300 songs, or something like that. An option to randomize again when syncing would be great too, so I could do that over wifi. Also, I have a Roku attached to my TV/Sound System, and it only supports playlists and not radio, so this is another reason, although both would be great :)
I love where you guys are heading! I use you on my iPhone, Android tablet, PC, and Roku. Haven't touched Pandora in at least 6 months...why bother?

Radio stations audible on telephone line

Have had phone service (landline) with Verizon at this same location for years, and was working well until about one month ago, when Internet connection was lost, followed by telephone box not receiving power. Repairman replaced external boxes and phone box/battery, and now we are receiving what sounds like several radio stations when trying to use the phone. Callers do not hear this. Makes placing calls very unpleasant and almost inaudible.

Just a friendly reminder, this is a forum where users help other users. If you are having an issue with your Verizon service, you can use the Verizon Troubleshooter to fix and report issues with your Verizon Phone, FiOS TV, or Internet Service, as well as to schedule a repair, here is the link:

How do you fine tune radio station

After I've created a radio station, how do you get back to the window for fine tuning the station?
I'm on a Mac Pro, so I'm running iTunes on that, not an iPod, phone or iPad.

The only way to fix a lens is to send it back to the manufacturer. You make the adjustments in the camera, not the lens. However, only certain cameras have micro-adjustment (AFMA). Which model are you using?
There are DIY ways to do it, but I'd suggest plunking down a little money for a program like Reikan's FoCal and have it do it for you.

Why does my iPhone 5s keep crashing when I make a new radio station in iTunes Radio?

This happens whenever I am streaming iTunes radio and decide to create a new radio station. No sooner do I click create to make a new station and the apple logo comes up as my phone begins a complete reboot. Am I alone in this?

Take it to an Apple store for evaluation...

ITunes radio "Station Unavailable" Try again.

Some iTunes radio channels on my iPhone 5S appear with the following message "iTunes radio "Station Unavailable" Try again." I tried the same stations on my MacBook pro and iPhone 5C and they work just fine. I hard reset my phone, removed all the channels, and singed out and in of iTunes, but the problem still persist. Any ideas?
Thanks

Where are the Radio Station current charts?

Previous versions of iTunes had a list of radio stations across the country and we could pick one and see the songs on their current playlist available fo sale at the iTunes store. Where is that option?

Unfortunately, they have been removed, and without a word of their demise. Just one day, they up and disappeared. I love them as well, as they served many useful purposes. I hope that enough people would comment and make Apple rethink their position, but alas, apparently not enough...
Hope that this helps...

G2 Radio station reviews

I'm new to the Apple TV and am overwhelmed by the amount of radio stations to pick from in each genre. Are there any lists for forums to get reviews for the particular stations by genre?
Thanks in advance!

I believe you have to reload the url address in the little popup box. Copy it from from your browser line then readd it to the box. I think it is under FILE....open stream is the next level and clicking that should give you a box where you can paste the url.
