Spanners, if I may reveal how thick I am, where do I find the TMC version number?
I did try tuning to Classic FM manually using the frequency that works best here, ie 100.00 Mhz, but the TomTom didn't want to play....
Daysleeper I have a techie friend who's poised to butcher the car aerial, but I want to avoid that if I can!
GG Thanks for the link; I'll try it now.
