listening to a streaming radio station [View all]

Onlineradiobox.com
Unbelievably, this morning the transmission sounds like an old clock radio with an analog dial with another station bleeding in and drowning out what I'm trying to listen to! How can that be? I had to shut it off.
This has never happened before.

Update: the station is back to normal. Glad for that
