Planet Rock, The Arrow, and a bunch of other stations have moved to 12544 H on 2F. They are no longer receivable for me. :(

I would be surprised if Planet Rock doesn't have a stream as well.

If you like Planet Rock you can try streaming Q104 from Halifax, Canada

Very similar music to Planet Rock. Bobby Mac in the morning is quite funny, although its not quite the morning in the UK when its on due to the time difference.
Thanks, there seems to be different streams available. The web if and 'Tune-in Radio' app sounded ok but the streaming app in my Yamaha receiver was just awful. It was like 8-bit 22kHz or something.

Planet Rock is still geo-blocked, I can't find a way to circumvent that for the Yamaha.

Arrow classic rock from Netherlands, and TeamRock seems promising though

Can I mention Radio Caroline again? it's not geolocked - in fact they have special timeslipped versions for the USA. They're not as heavy as Planet Rock but there is absolutely no playlist limiting what's played. You can have something from Led Zeppelin followed by a classic from the sixties and something bang up to date.

Seconded! Particulary recommend Bob Lawrence Album Collection on Friday at 5:00pm.
