ND5 XS

What control point are you using ??  iOS or Android app or just the remote ???

Not sure I understand what you are trying to do,  unless you are trying to add stations not listed in the many thousands included with the Naim iRadio service. 

Mike B im running ios control. The radio stations can be added direct from the pc almost as a favourites list to the nd5 via its mac address apparently and store them direct. My streamer does not have the dab module fitted so only fm and am/mw for me most of the stations i want are listed on the site and i can store them on the pc portal just cant get them to the ND5? I dont use it that often for internet radio but if i had all my favourites on the pre stored list im sure it would encourage me more

PC portal???

ND5XS is managed either via a remote control or a tablet with a NAIM app running. All inputs including radio stations can be managed that way.

I don't bother with loading stations from PC,  the Naim iRadio (vTuner) service has all I need (+ 10,000 I don't need)  that are all viewed from the app & I just load them as presets, its is just so-o  much easier than messing with PC stuff.         

On the iOS app I keep the ones I use all the time as "Presets"  which is a function of the app,   you just select the station & touch the star in the middle of the bottom banner,  that turns the star (in outline) to filled in (solid) & it becomes a Preset on the iRadio front screen.  (see the att pic)    If I want another station thats not on my presets, then I go searching the so easy station listing ..........

Also I would add that iRadio HD (320kbs) & (UK only BBC HLS) on iRadio are really good,  better top end extension & fuller bass than with FM,  although FM beats all for mid range detail & realism.   

I shall try it this way and see how i get on, thank you for the pointers
