  Stacy CowanJul 30, 2025
  If your Grace Radio is connected to the network but unable to play certain stations, it could be due to several reasons: * The station may not be broadcasting at the current time. * The station might have reached its maximum number of listeners. * The station may no longer be broadcasting or the link on the radio might be outdated. * Also, a slow internet connection between the server and you could be the reason. To check these possibilities, try playing the stream on a PC via the broadcaster's website.

  If you're experiencing no audio or power with your Grace Radio, start by ensuring the power switch on the back of the unit is turned ON. Also, check the selection switch on the back to confirm whether the internal or external speaker source is appropriately selected. If you are using external speakers, ensure that the speaker wires and connections are securely and properly connected.
